Hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm
Unknown:your host Aurora, and I'm very happy to be spending some time
Unknown:with you today. Today's episode,
Unknown:heart break.
Unknown:Have you truly healed from your heartbreak? Yesterday, I was
Unknown:sitting in my truck, trying to figure something out with my
Unknown:phone.
Unknown:And from afar I saw our little neighbor's girl walking towards
Unknown:me and I just waved to her through the window and she waved
Unknown:and I look back down onto my phone. And then a couple of
Unknown:seconds later, my door swings open. And I love a girl shouts
Unknown:at me. Hello, how
Unknown:have you been?
Unknown:And in that moment, I just thought, wow, like I was clearly
Unknown:communicating with my body that I was being friendly but
Unknown:distant, not wanting to really connect. And that slow girl just
Unknown:made her way through my invisible boundary, swung my
Unknown:door open and just totally surprised me. Now this little
Unknown:girl is approximately 10 years old, 11 years old and glowing
Unknown:eyes and so friendly, like running around with an open
Unknown:heart at all times. And after we had like a 15 minute chat. I
Unknown:left driving off and I thought to myself wow this girl hasn't
Unknown:been through a heartbreak yet. This girl hasn't been through
Unknown:really tough situations yet. And now you can say yeah, there's
Unknown:some girls who go through that and still have that pretty smile
Unknown:on but with this girl I I know that she's never been through
Unknown:massive pain. And it really made me think on how she approached
Unknown:me how open hearted she was and friendly and wanting to connect.
Unknown:And it reminded me of myself when I was at age. And yeah, a
Unknown:couple of heartbreaks later, I noticed that I love people. I
Unknown:love connecting. But at times I still have these walls around my
Unknown:heart. My heart can be very open and joyous and light. But
Unknown:there's times when I know my heart is totally clogged up with
Unknown:regret, resentment, fear. And it takes
Unknown:a lot of
Unknown:being aware running a walk or sorry, running around mindful
Unknown:and listening to my thoughts and feelings to then open up my
Unknown:heart again. Today's episode is not only for people who recently
Unknown:got heartbroken, got the heartbroken got dumped. It's to
Unknown:all the people out there who ever been through a heartbreak
Unknown:to check in with themselves and find out. Am I maybe still
Unknown:clinging on to pain from a decade ago or 20 years ago? Am I
Unknown:fully open and available and friendly and kind and hopeful?
Unknown:feel less courageous or am I still in subtle ways? clinging
Unknown:to that pain. That pain from back then that totally shaped my
Unknown:mind about what love is all about and the consequences I
Unknown:suffered and the cook fusions I've made ever since. So, I
Unknown:think I want to call it an inventory check of the heart.
Unknown:And it really doesn't matter if you're married and have kids,
Unknown:and feel like, yeah, everything is perfect. It doesn't hurt to
Unknown:go back and check in with yourself, Am I living being my
Unknown:best self? Am I trustworthy? Am I trusting others fully? You
Unknown:see, the thing with heartbreak is that we make it all about
Unknown:ourselves.
Unknown:We
Unknown:go into birds perspective and try to find out what did we do
Unknown:wrong?
Unknown:Did we not listen enough? Did we not perform good enough and bad?
Unknown:Did we not get along good enough with the parents and law or the
Unknown:siblings or the friends? And it all doesn't matter? No. It's,
Unknown:it's done. Now, you know, you can reflect about these things.
Unknown:You can be aware of certain behavior. But I think you had
Unknown:your reasons to. Like, I think we tend to put ourselves into a
Unknown:victim position, or maybe even a perpetrator position and can
Unknown:really find peace. I've gone through many, many heartbreaks,
Unknown:and the biggest I want to say was in 2014, I had moved to a
Unknown:different country to be with my boyfriend at that time. And
Unknown:after a couple months, it was just fights and very nasty
Unknown:between us. So I had to pack my things and move away. And it
Unknown:took me years and years and years to heal from that pain.
Unknown:Which doesn't mean that for you now it's gonna take years and
Unknown:years and years. But what I invite you to do right now is to
Unknown:focus in on yourself and to re totally honest with yourself on
Unknown:how authentic you showed up in that relationship. Maybe you
Unknown:broad past pain, pain from your childhood, into that
Unknown:relationship, and you were not able to communicate clearly feel
Unknown:good about who you are. Feel confident about who you are,
Unknown:maybe you're still struggling was so many insecurities. And it
Unknown:was burden the relationship. I really don't know what it was
Unknown:that made her or him run away or made you guys broke break up.
Unknown:When you look at your childhood, what are the examples of love
Unknown:that you observed and experienced? In my instance, I
Unknown:can say they were very well functioning on a societal level.
Unknown:They were well functioning when it comes to financial needs. And
Unknown:I always had shelter and clean clothing and also food to eat.
Unknown:But on an emotional level. They didn't understand each other,
Unknown:they were too different. My dad is someone who loves heated
Unknown:discussions and loves to have kind of that friction with his
Unknown:partner. And my mom was always more scared and avoidant of that
Unknown:behavior and couldn't clearly communicate her boundaries. And
Unknown:it was just on an emotional level. It was a huge mess. Which
Unknown:doesn't mean that I'm ungrateful. I have deep respect
Unknown:for both of my parents. But when you being like very harshly
Unknown:honest with yourself, what did you how Did you experience love?
Unknown:How did you define a healthy relationships? And really
Unknown:relationship? When you look at your chart? Is there things that
Unknown:you carry around as a train as it's sadness? is an anger,
Unknown:resentment that you might have brought into your last
Unknown:relationship here? Do you distrust your partners, because
Unknown:maybe someone in the past has cheated on you or your parents
Unknown:cheated on each other.
Unknown:So no matter what it is, no matter what your luggage is,
Unknown:when you look back, you have to now focus on liberating yourself
Unknown:from that. Because if you want to live a fulfilled and content
Unknown:life with yourself, this is the work you have to do for
Unknown:yourself. And it is only then that you will attract a person
Unknown:into your life that is really meant to be with you. You know,
Unknown:when I saw that little girl yesterday, I just said My
Unknown:goodness, like she's not wearing any masks. She's totally
Unknown:herself. She thinks she's the beautifulest girl that there is,
Unknown:and she truly is because that's what she's radiating. And she's
Unknown:just very light and smart and awesome to be around. Can we get
Unknown:back to that self? I'm 120% sure we can. We just have to help
Unknown:ourselves to on dig ourselves, again, from all the mess from
Unknown:all the masks that we feel we have to wear. Because we're
Unknown:still not in full acceptance of ourselves. We might have been
Unknown:bullied at school back then, we might have had experiences where
Unknown:we felt deep shame and rejection towards ourselves. But if you
Unknown:carry this into our loving, romantic relationship, it will
Unknown:show at some point you will either be super jealous, super
Unknown:insecure, or super guarded. And people who are trying to be with
Unknown:you will not be able to reach you. And the painful thing is
Unknown:that sometimes they don't communicate that sometimes they
Unknown:just react to your guard and reject you. Even though you want
Unknown:to be close or annoy you with painful questions, because they
Unknown:want to be close and then you reject them. It's a whole mess
Unknown:when you're trying to be in a relationship with somebody, and
Unknown:you're still wound that you will be bleeding all over that person
Unknown:and your relationship. And all this without your awareness. So
Unknown:this is why I feel so many people wake up one day and are
Unknown:being left alone or being divorced. Because for them, it's
Unknown:out of the blue. It is they can't make sense of the
Unknown:separation, it was all normal. And then from one day to the
Unknown:other, she packed her things and left. You were not aware of the
Unknown:red flags of the little things that accumulated over time.
Unknown:Because maybe you have a huge blind spot from back then that
Unknown:you carried into your relationships. And the person
Unknown:that is leaving you is just doing what is best for her or
Unknown:himself. It has nothing to do with your worth. It has nothing
Unknown:to do with you not being lovable. You are so endlessly
Unknown:lovable and you are so worth it, to get to know yourself again,
Unknown:and to be completely raw and honest with yourself again. It
Unknown:is only then that we can live at peace with ourselves it is then
Unknown:we can sometimes make sense of why a relationship broke up. It
Unknown:is now by blaming the other person, and by blaming an entire
Unknown:gender, and by going out now still wounded and trying to date
Unknown:and getting more and more disappointed in the end,
Unknown:it is all about going within and seeing what still needs to be
Unknown:healed. What is it at the beginning of you guys
Unknown:relationship that you were so successfully hiding from that
Unknown:person that over the years came out bit by bit, and then they
Unknown:didn't like what they were seeing. Because you were putting
Unknown:on a show, you were not being authentic. So the person doesn't
Unknown:really know who you are, and the end. And sometimes when it comes
Unknown:to jealousy and depression, insecurities in general, we very
Unknown:successfully hide this from our partners at the beginning. And
Unknown:we think that in putting a lid on and suppressing it and
Unknown:pushing it away, it will go away. But those things want to
Unknown:be addressed deeply and have to be spoken out. I remember I
Unknown:record that episode for you about shame, and how when we
Unknown:express what we're deeply ashamed us about ourselves to
Unknown:our partners, how we can create deep intimacy. The same goes
Unknown:with your wounded parts, with your stuff that you need to deal
Unknown:with. Once you are aware of that stuff, you can go out there and
Unknown:communicate this to people. And sometimes people are willing to
Unknown:go that path with you, and heal together with you because they
Unknown:can relate to your story. And sometimes you will find yourself
Unknown:all by yourself. And this is okay too. This only means that
Unknown:you want to learn to be sufficient enough and totally
Unknown:independent. Maybe you've only learned to exist in a
Unknown:partnership in a family dynamic. Maybe it is time now to realize
Unknown:that you are so endlessly precious, so worthy. You are
Unknown:enough and so strong, that you can allow yourself to be
Unknown:independent, and to make your own little experiences here and
Unknown:there. I hope I can bring you resolution and healing. I would
Unknown:love to hear your thoughts. I would love you to message me on
Unknown:Facebook or on Instagram and share your pain and what you're
Unknown:going through right now or what you had to go through in the
Unknown:past or what do you still feel you need to healed make sure you
Unknown:subscribe to my Youtube channel and to my podcast here on Apple
Unknown:podcast. And if I was able to touch your heart and to provide
Unknown:you healing, please leave me a review on Apple podcast it would
Unknown:mean the world to me. And if you have any questions, shoot me a
Unknown:message on Facebook always. And I will be out there very soon
Unknown:again for you. And I will post more episodes about heartbreaks
Unknown:because I feel it's very important to talk about it and
Unknown:to once and for all heal and not run around with half broken
Unknown:heart and keep being disappointed or keep hurting
Unknown:other people. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for
Unknown:listening to the Borealis experience here. I'm your host
Unknown:Aurora and I will be back out there for you
