Healing from Sexual Abuse
By Carol Tuttle
One of the greatest obstacles survivors of sexual abuse can face is
the amount of denial they experience from perpetrators and even loved
ones who doubt their experience could have happened. As a result of
this lack of support, it can make it difficult to want to fully
heal. The deeper belief is "if I heal, there will be no evidence of
this person's wrong doing, and they will never have to pay the price
for their actions." It is as though you have to stay in a wounded
victim state to be the evidence of the abuse. Healing would erase
all evidence, and the fear is no one will be held accountable.
I have had the opportunity in assisting hundreds of women healing
from sexual abuse clear this deeper fear.
I have had repeated success with this simple formula of healing:
The wounded little girl inside that is still carrying all the
residual effects of the abuse needs to be validated that she has been
deeply hurt and betrayed. Once validated, the inner child needs to
be brought to a save place in a guided imagery, where she is
reassured she will never be hurt again. She is not the one here in
this life anymore, her adult self is, and is healing and choosing to
create a safe life now, where no one has to get hurt anymore. Once
this inner child is brought to a safe place, the residual energy from
the abuse needs to be cleared with an energy-clearing tool like Rapid
Eye Technology or Emotional Freedom Technique. (Go to
www.caroltuttle.com to learn these techniques)
The most powerful limiting beliefs and repressed emotions that need
to be cleared include:
My needs and desires are not important
Others needs are more important than mine
My body is bad because it might have felt good
Sex is love
I can only be loved for sex
I can't be loved for just me
Sex is bad
Men/women only want one thing
I am impure, bad, dirty, evil, defiled, sinful, immoral, guilty, shame
Bad things happen to bad people
The world is not a safe place
Others are deceptive and manipulative
Once clear of these negative beliefs and emotions, positive reframes
are anchored in by repeating the following statements while tapping
up and over the top to the back of the ears. This tapping works on
imprinting the following truths into your consciousness.
I am safe
It is safe to beautiful
It is safe to be a woman/man
I am trusting the right people
I am healing now
This little girl is safe now
This little girt can heal now
I am pure because I am part of the divine
I am treated with respect
I am precious
I am safe to be my real self
All part of me can heal and integrate
I have witnessed miraculous healings in the lives of many people who
suffered terribly as children. I believe that we are all endowed
with a healing for whatever adversity we have come through. We carry
our healing as part of the larger intelligence of who we are. The
above techniques tap into that healing intelligence to activate and
bring it forth in your life.
Healing no longer has to be hard and take a long time. Believe you
deserve to heal. Let go of staying the evidence. You only give more
power to more children being abused as you stay a wounded victim. As
you reclaim your life, one more person breaks the chain and is now
available to make a difference in this world for the good. Beat your
perpetrator at this vicious game by clearing and healing any residue
you may still carry from your painful childhood. Don't settle for
surviving, go for the gold and claim your rights at thriving.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Visualizations to Heal Your Wounded Inner Child
"Close your eyes, take three deep breaths fully and deeply into your
body. With every exhale, let your body become more relaxed. Imagine
yourself in a beautiful safe place with the light of heaven pouring
down on you. In your mind imagine divine beings there to assist you
in your healing. Feel the great love, honor and respect they have
for you. Ask them to go to the cave of lost children to find the
parts of you that are still suffering from the abuse of your
childhood. Imagine they depart and quickly return with the ages of
you that had been abused. Imagine these younger ones eager to be
found and brought to safety. Look them in the eye, reach out to them
in love, and tell them you are glad they came. It is time to let the
healing begin.
They do not need to carry the wounds of your past any longer. Thank
them for carrying them this long. Validate their pain and suffering
and tell them you believe them. Tell them the divine beings believe
them. Invite them to release their pain and suffering into the white
light to be dissolved. Invite them to receive in return more of
their pure essence and power. Imagine all of them bathed in white
light to clear any sense of impurity. Tell them they never have to
leave this place. This is their new home. They will never be found-
out by anyone that could hurt them. The beings of light are there to
stay with them and protect them.
Thank them for coming home to you today. Share with them you are
healing and making your life work and they can trust you now. Come
back into present time. Feel your body in the space you occupy. Open
your eyes in present time. Now that you are safe and loved"
Another way I used this technique was to help me heal my issues with
having sex. Having a healthy sexual experience was almost impossible
for me the first 15 years of my marriage.
Ten years into my marriage is when I discovered the deeper issues of
sexual abuse that had complicated it so much. I did not know how to
stay in my adult presence and feel safe in the experience. I
continually felt like I was being abused all over again as I had as a
child. To help me heal this, I created an imagery much like the
above and before I would have sex with my husband I would call in
my "little Carol's" and meet with them and explain that I was
choosing to have sex with my husband and it did not involve them.
They were not a part of it. I brought in a guardian angel to take
them away to a safe place far enough removed from my experience,
where they could play and be free.
I would have images of these "little Carol's" jumping for joy saying
to me "good we don't want anything to do with that stuff!" I used
this technique repeatedly and as a result I gained more and more
presence as an adult woman who wanted to enjoy sex with her husband.
I also had to train my body that it was safe and desirable. I have
other techniques I used for that like the EFT!! It has all worked.
I am a free woman enjoying sex several times a week. That is from
coming from a place where I wished it was not a part of my marriage
and in the worst stage of healing I was not willing to participate in
any sex for almost a year! I have a very patient, faithful husband!!

Three Marathons and Growing!
I am thrilled that I just completed my third marathon by running
the "Country Music Marathon" in Nashville, TN with my husband Jon.
If you want an awesome way to challenge yourself, try running a
marathon or half-marathon.
While running, I frequently thank my body for its willingness to
support me in this experience. I love my body and it's willingness
to take on the challenge.
What messages are you telling your body? Do you love it or resent
it? Whatever message you send it, it will respond to you with more
of that experience.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Therapeutic Gemstone of the Month
This month I want to highlight "Rhodocrosite." This therapeutic
gemstone assists us in breaking up and releasing destructive patterns
that are held deep in our energy.
After releasing the destructive patterns it helps us create new
healthy ones.
I recommend it to all my clients that are healing from addictions of
all kinds.
Go to www.gemisphere.com to learn more about this and other
therapeutic gemstones.
Gemstones are energy props that assist us in changing our energy,
which then changes our lives.
