“Healing is a privilege.”
That change in your commute to work, phone conversation with a friend, extra 20 minutes of sleep, or the boundary you just set with a sibling is proof that you are healing.
This episode explores the concept of healing, emphasizing that it is a journey towards wholeness rather than a destination. We discuss the various layers of healing, the truths about healing, and the continuous nature of the healing process. Instead of pressuring yourself to meet an unrealistic definition of healing, I am inviting you to define it for yourself, recognize your progress, and engage in daily practices that lead to wholeness.
Healing is about becoming whole and aligned.
Healing can involve multiple cycles throughout life.
Feeling pain does not negate the healing process.
Loss can be a part of healing.
Healing is a lifelong journey, not a one-time event.
Daily practices contribute to a sense of wholeness.
Self-awareness is key to recognizing healing progress.
Setting boundaries is an important aspect of healing.
Emotional maturity is reflected in the ability to feel.
Healing is a privilege that allows for continuous growth.
