Never Doubt Your Own Healing Power

My belief is based on the premise that you are so wise about what you need and how you can heal yourself. Now you might be thinking “Well if I can heal myself, why do I need you?” or “Why can’t I access my power?” BECAUSE society and most of the western medical system tells you that you are broken and if you try their prescriptions/advice and do not heal, well than the assumption is that there is something wrong with you. No. No. I am not saying ignore the modern western medical field and current research. We are so lucky for the advancements that have come from them BUT there are things about you and your experience that get marginalized (agism, sexism, racism, economic restrictions, ablism, religion, on and on). And most importantly, they don’t know all the times that you have risen after falling down. That you have a unique talent to see the best in others. That your anger has been the fuel to keep you going when you thought you couldn’t go on.

Sometimes that very coping skills that have kept us alive or helped us achieve our goals (perfectionism is see you!), they start to get in your way. Now all your brain is trained to do is criticize yourself or others. You feel like nothing is good enough. Our brains are built to focus on problems and society reinforces that, BUT we can train our thoughts to refocus on the garden of strengths you uniquely have within and start to choose different, more helpful thoughts and behaviors. You are not broken. Let’s uncover the parts within you that thrive.
