To all my fellow self healers - you bold courageous beautiful souls.….
I see you. I witness you. I celebrate you. I am proud of you.
I was having a conversation with someone the other day, a fellow self healer on her journey. She said that she believes that those of us who are here dealing with chronic pain and conditions took on a big task, that we are here to evolve, to grow, to transcend if we so choose.
I often catch myself saying or thinking, “damn this is hard but what other choice do I have?” …and the truth is - there are other choices.
I was talking to someone today and that is when I had this lightbulb moment and felt so damn proud of myself and each and every one of you (no matter where you are at in this self healing journey) - for choosing to step into responsibility - for choosing to step into your power - for choosing to believe you can and will heal no matter how long it takes or what you have to learn to do it or what you have to change.
As we know - getting unwell isn’t anyone’s fault - but it is our responsibility, right? So in this conversation I had today it really really hit me HOW many people who do have health challenges who absolutely just refuse to see the light. They refuse to believe that they have choice to heal. They refuse to believe that they have the power or that they can change their story. So many people would truly rather stay stuck in their victimhood and live their “wo is me” life. Check out Reddit groups and FB groups -these people are everywhere - and all around us.
They hear someone like you or me say “hey, listen, you aren’t just unlucky. You don’t just have bad genes. You aren’t stuck this way”….but they don’t want to hear it.
And when I had this conversation today and heard someone really say all these things it was a moment where it was so hard for me to bite my tongue and say nothing. I have been trying to slowly plant seeds for her that healing is for everyone, even her, for over a year now, but she is still in utter denial.
And that was when I had that moment where I thought - wow I am really fucking proud of my fellow self healers - maybe some of us were once in her shoes - refusing to see how we could take responsibility for our healing - but here you are now- at some point you made a new choice - at some point you decided you would write a new story - and at some point you took your power back and said - Im doing this - whatever it takes.
And that makes you a courageous bad ass!
Thank you for being you. Thank you for taking on this huge endeavor - thank you for choosing to finally do the inner work to bring yourself back to balance - which shines light outward on everyone else.
Thank you for being on this journey with me and continuing every day to inspire me. Thank you for being a part of something big and beautiful no matter how hard and dark it might sometimes seem. Thank you for daring to be, might I say, different … for thinking outside the box and believing in something new, something that not everyone has caught onto yet.
I see you. I witness you. I celebrate you.I am proud of you. And most of all - I love you - each and every one of you.
