There is something very fundamentally comforting in realising we’re not alone in a situation, or in having endured a certain trauma. We need others to understand ourselves, and to even admit and accept that we have indeed experienced something traumatic. By hearing someone else’s story, we can recognize our own. And through listening to others, and recognising our own pain, we can also tap into our emotions more naturally, and let them emerge to be released, as well as find forgiveness and an increased understanding. Then it becomes easy to extend compassion with our empathy.

At Telluselle Living Center, I hope to host these kind of groups, where we can come together and bond through sharing the same kind of experiences, not to wallow, but to uplift, encourage and move on, with one another’s support. This becomes a kind of coaching in small groups, with up to 10 participants, sitting in a circle, for a safe setting.

What have you been through? What have others around you experienced? What would you like to change and how? Send me an email to hannah@telluselleliving.com and share!
