Why am I not healing?
Oh friends. This one is a doozy of a question, and one that I’ve both been asked and asked myself. And the answer isn’t simple. There are many different directions I could have take this post, but this is what’s up for me. So here you go.
No Exit
It feels terrifying, right?! The idea that there's no escape away from what feels hard or painful. Let's face it, we all have our ways of escape. For some, it's using a substance like alcohol, drugs or even food. For others, it might be watching television or reading. I even see it within spirituality, using self reflection as an aggressive tool to get away from what is happening.
Integrating your healing session
I received a healing session from my dear friend who taught me this work on Saturday. It was possibly one of the most powerful, strangest, mind-blowing sessions I've had. It was so far out of the box, I couldn't even fully describe it to you. As I find this work often does, it made so many seemingly separate things make sense. A big "aha" that changed my perspective on... well, everything.
Why vulnerability is so necessary
It took me many years to say I was a healer. There is so much stigma attached to the word, as well as skepticism. This, along with my aversion to criticism, kept me carefully hiding from success. For me, becoming a healer was a slow process of putting myself out there one baby step at a time. I wanted to remain hidden, yet be successful at the same time, and I was frustrated when it didn't work that way.
