Whoever said that the healing process is a straight line is absolutely right. Sometimes it is necessary to go backwards in order to go further. There is no magic formula that, when followed, guarantees an instant sense of well-being.
In fact, there is no sudden fix that will make you believe you are completely healed, because on a deeper level, healing involves something much more profound than simply fixing what is broken.
Life is cyclical, we experience birth, death and rebirth in subtle and different ways every day. If we keep breathing and do not resist change, we are healing.
We have the capacity to change and, therefore, to improve.
Every day we gain new experiences and knowledge, so it is essential to heal daily.
Healing is very similar to remembering who you really are.
It is a process of getting to know yourself in a way that you never have before.
You don't need to feel or look perfect, because you are not.
Healing means surrendering to the unknown.
No one knows how this process will unfold.
Healing is uncertain, unpredictable and uncomfortable.
But at the same time, it is a personal choice, one's own decision to move forward, even if it is difficult and messy.
Healing is different for everyone.
There are times when you need to be alone with yourself, to live your own unrest and spend entire nights in solitude.
At these times, you may feel weak and everything you know may fall apart.
At times, you may even need to ask for help.
But the truth is, it is in these moments that you will really learn to stand up for yourself and choose yourself.
Moments of weakness are opportunities to demonstrate your hidden strength, when you make the decision to move forward in silence and listen to your heart. For, in those moments, you will find the answers you need.
You only need to listen to your heart and attend to what your being is telling you to find the healing you need.
Everything else is simply distraction.
It is not about ignoring or avoiding a wound, but facing it and learning from it.
Sometimes, it involves reliving the pain over and over again until it is finally accepted and released.
Healing is a second chance after trying to accept things as they are, even if we do not approve of them, if we despise them or consider them unfair.
At times, the healing process is like diving into an ocean.
It is so deep that it allows you to go into the pain and embrace it.
The only way out is to go even deeper into that ocean and delve deeper into the pain.
But little by little, you can also find your way to the surface.
In the end, you realize that you are a different person, with more depth and with the ability to breathe freely, with nothing holding you back.
The moment you breathe again, you understand that what really matters is your life, that it must have meaning.
It must be worth fighting for.
And in that instant you realize that there is nothing to stop you from going on.
Sometimes simplifying things is the best thing we can do to heal.
We hurt ourselves when we resist the present and what life is teaching us.
But if we are aware of why we are suffering, we begin to understand what is happening and can give ourselves the opportunity to accept what is.
Then we can open our hearts and understand why things happen the way they do.
Life is a gift and we have to honor it by living authentically and giving our best.
Healing is not a destination but a personal journey that leads us towards acceptance and growth.
