Summary

What does healing actually mean? There are so many modalities and what works for one might not work for another. But the angle I’m offering is that healing requires us to sit with our pain, and in a pain avoidant society/culture, this is sometimes a big ask. At the very least it’s something we need to learn, and be supported, to do more often. There is no circumventing our pain and though the prospect of sitting with it might be scary or uncomfortable for you, I have seen and felt myself that it often always leads to relief because what we’re finally doing, is acknowledging our own existence. We’re no longer pretending to be ok, or acting like someone else that might be deemed more acceptable to society. We get to be in our authentic truth and that is a very liberating and empowering feeling to reside within. You’re not going to fully heal until you pull the thorn out from your wound and pulling the thorn out requires that you go on a journey within yourself. We have to walk into the forrest where all the shadows that scare us are. We need to get to know them and become comfortable with them and recognise that what we were afraid of wasn’t our pain but the unknown, itself. Because once we get to know our pain we get to know ourselves, and once we get to know ourselves we feel less alone because we realise that when we connect to all the various parts of ourselves (like putting the pieces of the puzzle together or gluing the broken fragments of a vase back together again) we feel whole. Healing is a catalyst for growth. It’s an open door that invites you to get to know yourself better. It’s a journey and an awakening. It will require courage, which requires heart, but the journey will lead you to the state of peace you have been seeking. It will guide you back home. Tune in for more… Loving you from afar, Corinne
