Self-Allyship in CPTSD Healing

Consider this: “You are your greatest ally” as a childhood trauma survivor on a CPTSD Resolution quest, and now consider this: How is Self-allyship in CPTSD healing relevant to you?  

Even if old evidence suggests “you don’t got you” you can generate new evidence that you are your own most vital source of support, advocacy, and empowerment in your life. 

It is not YOU, but it is Parts of you or Entities that you have absorbed or inherited that may be working against your Personal Power and aligned Leadership. 

When you stop fighting against yourself and recognize that it is Parts and Entities running Trauma Energies that have generated the old evidence, you can begin to accept yourself as you are right now at this moment. 

So while resistance and sabotage are instructive toward what needs Completion during Unburdening, these internal experiences are not beneficial to leading your CPTSD Resolution process. 

Some places to practice Self-allyship:

1. Amplifying compassion over criticism: Notice when critical energies have taken over, especially in times of struggle. See if you can soften the criticizing voices by acknowledging the courage it takes to begin a healing journey.
2. Observing what is actually happening internally: For so long, Parts of you have overridden your natural cues to rest, take space, or seek support. Just simply observing “what would make me feel loved right now?” and then noticing what action urges are driving your decision-making can be a huge step forward in reinstating your natural Self-protective instincts. 
3. Leaning into hope: Let’s face it. You probably don’t have a lot of good, recent evidence that you are a strong, wise leader of your internal system. At the same time, you have to start somewhere. See if you can radiate gentle and patient energy internally. 
4. Cultivating your inner authority: Recognizing and honoring your unique strengths and abilities are key to Self-allyship. Celebrate when you have a breakthrough and Wisdom Keep around how and why it happened.

When you stop fighting against yourself, and instead accept where you are right now in this moment, you can begin a more potent CPTSD Resolution process. 

While resistance and sabotage are instructive toward what needs Completion during Unburdening they are not beneficial to your consistent progress. 

So don’t vilify anything or create a hierarchical tower of judgment about what is happening internally for you, but do recognize that you fighting your internal system and all the Parts and Entities that you are stewarding internally is counterproductive. 

Accept and devote yourself to daily CPTSD Resolution activities and remember that Self-allyship in CPTSD healing is an essential reclamation of Personal Power.
