Traumatic Loss - is it inherited ?
I love the journey of discovery that has stemmed from the loss of my twin sisters. Each year pieces of the puzzle are opened up and I learn more. Having written my personal story called Breaking Through Loss, I found a wonderful method that can heal loss and prevent the repeats that can happen if loss is buried and not brought into the light.
Now after reading this article below, I am in no doubt that we can inherit buried emotion from our grandparents and great grandparents, as well as pass on further trauma to future generations.
Unresolved trauma passes through the genes.So your offspring can expect to be presented with similar trauma in an attempt to learn how to break the pattern and shine light on the situation.
Breaking Though Loss shows you how to prevent repeated losses in the most effective and efficient way.
If you have had family who have died, for example in wars, through cancers and illnesses, chances are there are repeating events happening in your life too.
You can peruse my story on Amazon at http://amzn.to/1p8i2Pe
I also recommend reading this article in which it explains how Rachel Yehuda, professor of psychiatry and neuroscience at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York has discovered that people with Post Traumatic Stress,have lower cortisol levels in their blood and this is passed onto offspring, thereby proving that trauma is inherited if untreated.

If you have any questions I am a trained Demartini Method consultant and an expert in loss and grief and any form of change. I would love to answer your questions.

Not running from myself no more - Grief ends here!
I have taken a long
journey through grief. Don’t get me wrong I have had a great life filled with
many happy events, I’ve done more than many.Yet the undercurrent has always
been the grief of losing my twin sisters. I cannot ever forget the days when
their loss happened and the sheer shock of what that meant to me.
Not everyone has this
experience and even if they do, not everyone experiences it like I did. Let’s
face it some people are happy if someone leaves their life! If we hate someone
and we have pain from them, then we are happy they leave!
Difficulty comes when
we ‘love’ them and then we feel a lot of emotional pain. That is what happened
to me. I loved my sisters so much…so very much.
Yet little did I
understand how much my love was a very one-sided experience. In fact I wasn’t
truly loving them for who they were and I wasn’t loving myself for who I was!
Even as I write, I
feel emotional, I recall just how much I perceived I loved them, and that loss
hurt me like a thousand knives!
I will never forget
that feeling and I am very grateful for it.
Since then I have
learnt how to balance out that traumatic emotion and bring to a most
respectable feeling of love and balance.
I can help you do the
same. Yes it is not a straight forward process but is a process and it is
fairly quick.
It is quicker than
most so called therapy – so please do not get bogged down in grief.
I could be that
option for you that allows you to begin living truly to yourself!
I’ve experienced a
lot of loss and now I am comfortable with all that loss. If you would like to
talk to me then please make a connection my connection email is lynn950@gmail.com

Heading Home
That picture is so special to me. That dog is so special to me. That morning, that sunlight that moon are special to me.The path is so special to me. To think that the farmer laid that - it's actually made of concrete slabs. Its for the farm animals - it makes it easier for them to walk, it stops the ground from getting really muddy and soggy. We have had so many flooded areas , the ground is very sodden, and this field with its road is perfect for walking the dog - lol! I love this farmer! I love this dog, I love my village...and I love the morning prayers, very grateful for the time I have to do this. Check out your own areas of special, what are they ? Think about them, what things do you love dearly ? What things in life are you grateful for ?

My gravity!

January was full of
hope as a new year started and I was going great guns with my planning. Really
high on my agenda was some Master Planning for the year ahead. Needing to
balance my life and ensure that I devote ample time to each of the key seven
areas of life.
I believe that you
can do what you love and earn ample to enjoy the life you want if you can be
disciplined enough to not only allow yourself to dream but to take action, take
steps and move along that path.
I have succeeded in
writing a book which seemed like a mountain to climb at the start, but
eventually it came to fruition and it was all from following the simple steps
of trusting myself, believing in the dream, and working on it.
Of course I had
people assist me along the way. I trusted that the universe would send me what
and who I needed.
I would love to
write this blog and sound like a sophisticated guru who knows the 'answer', the
truth is I don't, I don't know it any more than anyone else. What I do know is
that I have experienced some profound things and I have searched for over four decades
to find answers.
Due to the nature of
my 'life' challenge I learnt from a young age to keep silent. For those who
don't know I lost both of my sisters when I was nine years old, back in the
days when there was not much understanding about loss and grief.
The silence taught
me many things and it also was responsible for bringing about many repeats of
loss and changes in my life that would see me encounter many difficult
challenges.
I wonder…do you know
how it feels to have so much emotional stuff trapped inside you, with no outlet
? You see for me, I have been quiet for so much of my life. I feel sure that my
life's mission is to teach young children what I have learnt.
Have you seen the
movie 'Gravity' with Sandra Bullock ?
Stranded in space, with many difficult problems to solve, she almost
loses the will to live, having suffered the loss of her son, just as she is
about to give up….George Clooney's ghost appears and says something like '
Yeah….it's pretty good out here….it's safe here in space……easier than the
challenges of life on earth…' Well something struck me like a bolt! The scene
mirrored where I was at ……you see the silence seems like a security blanket
however in essence it is holding me back from being my full blown self.
Being silent is like
being out alone in space….please excuse I can feel myself welling with emotion.
I am so scared to do, say something and be rejected, laughed at or scorned.
When you feel intense emotional pain, you kind of want to hide away from anyone
adding more hurt to it…you hope that in time it will heal and feel less
painful…the truth is that by hiding you keep it raw.
I am not going to do
it anymore. I have decided not to be such a big sop. I don't want to be
stranded in space anymore.
I want to live my
life in a fantastic and fulfilling way. I want to enjoy sharing with other
people and helping them to overcome their fears and help them appreciate who
they are, as much as who I am. To teach my daughter how to love herself through
my example would be so beautiful.
She asked me the
other day 'Mummy ..what would you say is the most important thing in life ?'
Woah what a deep question!
I said 'to live your
most authentic self'
I asked her what she
thought it was and then …she blew me away………………
'Love……….I think
love is the most important thing'
Boom! That's my
gravity!

Top Five Alternative Grief Lessons
Welcome to what is the most
amazing journey you will ever encounter. As bad as you might feel, simply know
that you will rise again, you will feel whole again and the pain will go.
Grief definition: the freezing of emotions inside
the body until human spirit is ready to 'face' feeling these emotions of
sadness, despair, relief - did I say relief?
Grief is the most amazing pack of
emotions one can ever experience! And for every individual, it is an individual
experience!
Here are a few quick lessons and
anchor points: -
Lesson
1
There is no requirement to
overcome grief. Grief is a personal and individual experience. If you want to
stay in grief you can. If you want to transcend it, you can. And can you can!
Lesson 2
Grief can be extremely
challenging! Simply know that there are others out there who can help you, others
who have experienced this intensity. There is support out there. I am offering support!
Lesson
3
Help is available and you have
the option to seek that help. There is no shame in seeking help. Think of it as
requiring a grief teacher, to teach you how to navigate grief.
Lesson
4
There is a positive side to grief. It is not all gloom and
depression! In fact it can spur your biggest growth!
Lesson
5
Unresolved grief can affect your financial income and future
retirement. Any money spent on overcoming grief will be recouped tenfold over
your lifetime.
