Ty Wonder (00:01):
Welcome to Robbin’s Nest, the empowerment podcast
with nourishment for the mindand spirit.
Welcome to the Nest.

Robbin Sexton (00:14):
It's Robbin, your empowerment coach.
Welcome to the Nest.
The last time we were together,we talked about the recovery
room and I began to really thinkabout more, about the pain of
recovery.
The cut was necessary.
There's something inside methat is killing me.

(00:35):
It may be poisoning me.
It's doing something from theinside.
I know it needs to happen.
I know I need for it to comeout, but the pain of the
recovery, the pain of the cut.
When I move it hurts.
I know my gallbladder needed tocome out, but I hate the pain

(00:57):
that comes from the healing.
What happens when you're havingpain during the healing?
There is pain even in recovery.
I'm not able to jump up and golike I used to.
The pain affects my movement.
The pain causes me to walk morecarefully because I don't want

(01:18):
to cause even more harm.
It causes me to guard my wound.
I can't give just anybodyaccess to it.
I don't want to reopen it.
I don't want to cause moredamage.
The memory of what I wentthrough can cause more damage if
I begin to dwell on it too long.
I don't want to cause infection, so I have to make sure that my

(01:43):
wounds are kept clean.
You have to watch what you grabwhen you're in pain, because all
you want is the pain to stop.
So you're in a relationship andit ended and you're hurting and
you grab the first thing thatyou see or the first person you
come in contact with, becauseall you want is the pain to stop

(02:06):
.
Be careful who you give accessto when you're in your healing
season, because in your effortto stop the pain, you could
reach for somebody who willcause you even more pain.
Now, not only am I still tryingto heal from the old wound, but

(02:27):
you came and gave me a newwound, so now I'm trying to heal
from the old and the new at thesame time.
Sometimes, even after yoursurgery, you have the scars to
prove that you've had surgery,but after it's healed you'll be
able to touch it withoutexperiencing the pain of it.
It doesn't cause you pain tohear his name anymore.

(02:50):
I don't have that knot in mystomach when I have a memory of
the incest.
I'm on the other side of it.
The last steps of recovery it'sgetting easier.
I'm moving without feeling pain.
I can exercise again.
I'm returning to myself.
I can return to work.

(03:11):
I'm making a full and completerecovery At the end of it.
If I watch what I try to use,if I watch and make sure I don't
use a bad bandage, if I watchand make sure I don't give
somebody access to it and reopenit.
If I watch and I'm careful andI begin to move slow, but I'm

(03:31):
moving I begin to heal again, Ibegin to laugh again without
having to splint it because ithurts.
For me to even laugh is over.
I can return to myself.
Let it hurt, Let it heal andthen let it go.
You survived the trauma.
You will survive the recoverytoo.
