The above picture is similar to one that was used in a fabulous websites visual and verbal on steps torwards breaking cycles of abuse. The abused is drinking from large bowls of toxicity. This lesson suggests , try to fill one bowl with something healthy for just you. An activity you want to try? A soothing mantra? Anything!! At your own pace, meditate and reflect, and move to another bowl; visualize the toxicity pouring out and you pouring your new healthy (anything!) filling the next bowl. Think of how you will feel when all your bowls are filled with pure love for yourself.
Maybe this will help someone?
