Can we talk about how healing is not only being able to handle trauma but also being able to handle joy?
Because I feel this point doesn't get talked about enough.
Yes, understanding how to process uncomfortable/painful emotions is part of the work—but what is the work actually for?
I hold the belief that the purpose of healing work is to expand our capacity for joy as a service to not only ourselves but the entire planet.
Healing is not just a process to handle past pain, it is a pathway for joy.
Notice where in your life you are still unforgiving, resentful, or holding a grudge. And notice where in your body are you feeling this heaviness, contraction or stiffness. This will give you a hint of where you can start to bring ease into your system.
Forgiving yourself constantly and generously, so frequently that it becomes habit, is a great form of healing. Most of what you punish yourself for is wasted potential that exists in an abstract and invisible place only you can see.
If this resonates, there's two days left to join us for "Self-Haters Anonymous" an online workshop designed to help us heal the way we sometimes block ourselves from receiving the joy that's available to us at all times. Without fake positivity or empty affirmations, you'll be taken through somatic practices that will unlock joy in your body.
You'll also walk away with tangible, everyday practices to sustain this new frequency. We go live this Saturday June 15, click here to join: https://bit.ly/SelfHatersAnon2024
Tapping into our innate joy is the best gift we can give to ourselves and everyone around us.
