We often expect healing to be a straight line toward relief. But in reality it often begins with a breaking.

When your trauma first happened, your body did what it had to do to keep you alive. It shut down, numbed out, stored the pain away. It didn't have the capacity to feel it all back then.

In healing, that capacity starts to grow. And suddenly, the grief, rage, and longing that were locked away start to move through you. This can feel like falling apart but it's actually your nervous system doing what it couldn't do before: processing what's authentic without collapsing.

Messy doesn't mean wrong. Overwhelming doesn't mean you're going backwards.
It often means your body has now more capacity to hold what was once unholdable.

If you're in this part of your healing right now, where the old patterns are cracking and the feelings are raw, you don't have to walk through it alone.
