3 Things We All Need to Hear – From Dr. Arielle Schwartz

Written by: Jessica Ortner

Throughout our lives, we all encounter a myriad of experiences. Some leave us with memories we cherish, while others etch deep marks of pain and hurt. 

Big or small, we all experience trauma at some point in our lives. 

These traumatic experiences can weigh heavy and impact us on a daily basis. The wounds of our past often leave us feeling like we are broken and fragmented, vulnerable in our surroundings, and unworthy of care and support.

In order to better understand the effects of trauma and how to begin the healing process, I had the privilege to learn from and collaborate with Dr. Arielle Schwartz, a beacon of hope for those navigating the path of trauma recovery.

Today, I’m going to share 3 powerful takeaways I walked away with from our time together.

Meet Dr. Arielle Schwartz

Dr. Arielle Schwart is a renowned clinical psychologist and bestselling author of The Complex PTSD Workbook. With over 6,000 reviews and 4.7 out of 5 rating on Amazon, this book has been gaining momentum as a groundbreaking tool for individuals. She is also the author of the powerful book, The Post- Traumatic Growth Guidebook

Her wisdom and insights on healing have blown me out of the water, and her teachings have changed my life. 

I’m so excited to share with you the top three lessons I took away from our time together.                           

 

 

 


3 Things We All Need to Hear – From Dr. Arielle Schwartz


1. You are not broken, you are deeply hurt and simply in need of care

When we face unresolved trauma, many of us end up feeling like there is something wrong with us. This can leave us thinking that we are broken or flawed. 

But as Dr. Arielle puts it, the truth is that you are not broken. You’ve been deeply hurt, and you are simply in need of care.

You are not broken. In fact, you are already whole. And you just need compassion, love, and support to help you heal from the hurt you’ve endured. 

This recognition that you are already whole and that you are not broken – it can be the first step towards healing. 

So take a moment to take that in today. Repeat it to yourself, if you can:

I am not broken. I’m simply hurt, and in need of care.

2. You can find safety inside of yourself whenever you need it

In order to heal and to allow our bodies to release the burdens of trauma, we need to feel safe enough now, in the present moment. So, we must learn to build a sense of safety and stability within ourselves, before healing the wounds of the past. 

Fortunately, we all have the tools within ourselves to establish a sense of safety. 

We can ground ourselves in our physical space, we can gather comforting resources around us (a fuzzy blanket, a pet, whatever it might be), and we can go within ourselves to visualize our own inner sanctuary of safety. We can close our eyes and imagine a place where we feel totally at peaceful and at ease, and we can do whatever we need to in that space to feel safe and comfortable. These are all things we can do, whenever we need, to establish safety.

Landing in that sanctuary of safety within ourselves can be such a powerful tool to help us open the doors to healing.

As Dr. Schwartz says, 

You can create your own inner retreat, that you can return to as often as you’d like.”

3. All of you is welcome here

Another key ingredient for healing is self-acceptance. 

It can be easy to feel ashamed of certain parts of ourselves, or to want to push away certain feelings. But, in order to heal, we must learn to accept ourselves as we are, and to love all the parts of us that show up.

Approaching our emotions and experience with curiosity, rather than criticism, creates space for all our feelings and all our parts to be acknowledged. 

As Dr. Schwartz says, “It is the birthright of every human being to be loved and accepted just as they are.” 

You deserve that love and acceptance.

ALL of you is welcome here. And ALL of you is worthy of unconditional love and acceptance.
