If you were the victim of narcissistic abuse, odds are you’ve spent years wondering through a dark space. You’ve probably had a hard time realizing who you really are, or even who you want to be. Achieving dreams becomes more of a nightmare as we navigate the complicated ups and downs of being idealized and (ultimately) discarded by the narcissists in our lives. Want to find your way back to the surface? Learn to nourish your mind, your body, and your soul in an entirely new way.

The best ways to nourish your spirit after narcissistic abuse.

Learning to nourish our spirit after surviving narcissistic abuse can be cleansing. Embracing ourselves in this tender way is empowering and enables us to recreate our spaces and mindsets. We have to learn new patterns, though, and consciously break the cycles that are keeping us small and holding us back. Is that a leap you’re ready to make? Nourishing your spirit could save your life.

Get into a positive space
