Yoga and Breakup
Is it just in my mind?? So I’ve been in a pretty abusive relationship for 15 years. Not particularly physically but mostly mentally and emotionally. Coercive control type of stuff. Ive been wanting out for a very long time but due to what people call a ‘trauma bond’ it’s been so hard to end it, plus just fact that he just wouldn’t let me and would threaten and bully me into being with him.
I recently started doing Yin Yoga and something has just totally changed in me, it’s like I’ve found an inner peace. I have had no peace for such a long time, just so much stress and emotional turmoil. He started his crap again and started acting CRAZY screaming, shouting, throwing things at me…the usual stuff. After 7 hours I got him out of the house. He’s been calling, turning up and stalking, begging but I am just not having it I literally have no interest anymore. It’s been a whole month where I haven’t answered a call or message. I’ve never done this before. Every time I feel weak I do a yoga class. I swear it’s because of yoga that I have found this strength. 15 years and I’ve never felt so at peace.
It’s a god send. Or am I imagining it?
