Pull
(Yield)
Psychologically:
Diagnosis: Yield into labels, into new iden?ty, into the story
of who you are
Treatment: Yield into the fear of change, again of the
unknown
Recovery: Yield into healing, and being okay again but as a
new version of yourself, new iden?ty, new normal
PosMrauma?c Growth: Yield into the meaning making of the
illness process, allow this to come with ?me and not rush it;
trust the process
Again, see if there is some place in your body that you can nd a small
sense of discomfort. First accept and Yield, be with and move towards
this discomfort. Then, with this embodied, begin to organize the
surrounding areas to move with but from this area. This is very rened.
Youre not leaving it behind, but you are saying I am dierent from fully
being this discomfort. It is a paradox. It is both me and not me.
Death is completely
connected with life, and if
we look closely at how
we die, we will be
challenged as to how we
live.
(Donnelly, Michael, & Donnelly, 2006)
