Neurographic Art Meets Kintsugi

This past weekend I experimented with a new (to me) type of healing art. A combination of Neurographic and Kintsugi. If you aren’t familiar, Kintsugi is an ancient Japanese practice of repairing broken or cracked pottery, such as loved vases or bowls. Rather than trying to hide the cracks or breaks, they were repaired with gold or silver added over the lacquer glue, highlighting the cracks. Adding value to the piece, through its brokenness. Neurographica* is an algorithm-based type of brain healing art, where science meets psychology and creativity, utilizing specific steps that rewire and renew brain neurons and synapses….

Exaggerated Abuse?

“But don’t women usually lie about abuse?” “It wasn’t that bad.” “He didn’t hit her.” The reality is, she has been minimizing it and covering for him, for probably years or decades. She’s known his treatment of and attitude toward her was wrong, and not that of a loving husband. But was it really abuse? That’s what abuse does. It gaslights, manipulates, and confuses the victim. She’s had a hard enough time accepting the truth of reality that she is a victim of abuse. She doesn’t need you doubting her too. She’s not lying when she finally gets brave enough… Continue reading

Does God Expect You to Stay?

Does God expect you to stay? Enabling isn’t the “loving” or “biblical” thing to do. The abuser/sexually immoral has already broken the marriage covenant. #dvawareness #freelywhole #dvrecoverycoach Marriage is not a life sentence to abusive slavery. It is to be a bonding of mutual love and care, being one together, not one canceling the other by evil. There is no disclaimer to this, and other verses like it, “unless you married them.” Living Coram Deo & freely wholeSDG!~ Liberty Subscribe to my email list in the sidebar and get notifications of future posts on this website.

Cognitive Dissonance

Many women in abusive marriages are living in cognitive dissonance. To consider that her husband’s ill and wicked treatment of her is really abuse, goes against everything she holds dear.

Who Can She Trust

Many women don’t tell anyone about the abuse they’re living in. Others, or later, will confide in a close friend, family member, or her pastor. Hopefully these people will be loving support for her. But most will not have accurate information to help her in properly dealing with abuse or the trauma it’s caused. Abuse trauma educated resources, coaches, counselors are needed to get her through to safety and healing.

Abuse is More than Hitting

He doesn’t have to hit her, to keep her under his control. Much abuse is hidden. But is just as damaging as if he smacked her around—or more so.
