Cord Cutting - With every person we are in contact with, we have an etheric cord connection on a soul level. You will often hear people say there is a strong bond between two people or cut the cord with someone. When you have been in a very toxic relationship, regardless of what kind, it could have been a friend, a romantic relationship, an employer, whatever the case might have been, the poison of that relationship will always be with you and the hurt and emotional pain you sustained will stay with you always.
Cutting the cord with that person means you break the etheric connection you had with that person. It does not mean you wish that person any harm or ill intent, it simply means you free yourself of that hurtful connection and the toxicity, pain, trauma it caused you. That person still goes on living his/her life as normal, but you will free yourself from every burden and pain that person ever caused you.
