20 Healing Affirmations for 2020
Recovering your power and purpose after an abusive relationship
20. I will not let the bastards get me down. Nobody can take away the reality of the abuse you experienced. If you are gaslighted or experience cognitive dissonance, just remember that we don’t need their validation or confirmation of what actually happened. Let the new victim and the harem of star-struck groupies discover the truth in their own time. You know what is real and you don’t need them to grant you closure. Validate yourself.
19. I will set healthy boundaries. With some time and practice, you can set limits to protect yourself. Never allow anyone to violate you, disrespect you, and take advantage of you.
18. I will get well from the inside out. Quanta theory says, “So within, so without.” You will attract what is inside of you. Be kind and gentle to yourself and self-parent your injured child. You can be remarkable.
17. I will be glad to be alive every single day and count my blessings. Celebrate freedom from something toxic. You are free to create a newer, stronger you while also healing relationships with friends and family. Practice gratitude.
16. I will do more than survive. I can thrive. Do charitable deeds, help others, get involved with charities or service projects. When you put others before yourself, you win.
