Healing is not linear. This is true. And we often feel that we heal forward and then take steps back… That perspective undermines our efforts. You didn’t take steps back… you’re just in a circle back. An edit. A revision. Those happen with all the great stories.
It’s important to honor our prior healing & progress. To know that the “setback” is the universe handing you a shovel to dig deep because healing requires a multitude of angles to be addressed and perceptions to shift to successfully connect the event or period of time to others for full understanding of the impact it had. When you dig, you hit roots. Roots intertwine and serve as a communication channel that links all the knowledge within.
I realize that we often begin healing from the physical. We experience an injury, we get the diagnosis. And as we look around the life we live we see symptoms everywhere. Symptoms we long to disappear. If we are open to it, we begin to see the physical as it relates to the emotional. That depth of connective healing is where the magic is.
Trees have more than one root.
Stories have more than one line.
Lives have more than one moment.
How deep are your roots? How rich is your story? How many moments can you find connection between?
Just prompts for thought….
