Things continue to be rough on the home front relationally and I feel like I'm in between surviving and living. I'm thrown off by feeling little to nothing. I like feeling. Something. Other than when I'm sobbing in the counselor's office. Every time I go in, I prepare to tell him that I have no emotion to get to. Within 60 seconds of unpacking, I'm wiping snot and saline water off my face. I've decided to stop planning to say that phrase and trust that in a safe space, emotion is actually only seconds away. I'm glad I have a solid belief that nothing lasts forever and all seasons of life are necessary. Otherwise, I'd never even attempt to get out of bed.
Today I'm thankful for the opportunity to be counseled by one of the most intuitive, Spirit led, knowledgable, skilled people I've ever met. I am 100% sold on Emotionally Focused Therapy, not just because I'm an extremely emotional human being. :) If you ever consider counseling, at least look for a therapist who practices EFT. I couldn't recommend it more completely.
Below is a clip from a musician couple I deeply resonate with and admire. They are talking about the winter season and how clarity comes in the winter. This short video reminded me of the purpose of this winter season of my life.
Necessity of Seasons
