Where can I find ‘Peace of mind’….
You can’t heal in the same environment that disrupted that balance.
I heard this perfect example…
When a lion is chasing you…you don’t stand there to process your feelings of fear…YOU RUN!
The processing happens later…in a COMPLETELY different…safer…environment.
If you still hang around that lion…you are still hanging around the instigator of your ‘fear’…you cannot even begin to heal.
Another simplistic example…antidepressants are not effective when you remain around the stimulus of the depression.
You have to remove yourself or the stimulus of the depression for any drugs to even be given a fair chance to work.
Your inner feelings of ‘safety’ is what determines your entire Peace of mind and your sanity.
THAT cannot be found in the same environment that disrupted that balance.
