Let the Healing Begin

The healing process can be such a tedious task. The withdrawing of emotions, tears, feelings and the other 50 million nostalgic entities can ultimately take up a life of their own leaving one with past memories and at times a broken heart. Ironically many people tend to forget that healing process is exactly what it is, a PROCESS!

I often find myself laughing at how many of us forget that everything comes in due time. This goes especially when healing is needed. Like always time can be your best friend and worst enemy. It can give the space to grieve, reflect and get over, but it also can force someone to actually deal with those emotions that they may not be ready to face. Time, it is the predictor that all good things can come to an end, but also can start a hopefully fabulous new chapter.

Depending on the reason that caused someone to embark on this journey could possibly determine how long the process may take. A loss of a loved one, relationship or even losing one’s self can take God knows how long. But it is the way we embrace this time that can help the healing process progress along or simply stay stagnate.

Now everybody has their own style and ways of dealing with this process. I normally like facing my battles head on. It is my way of saying “hey it maybe a bumpy ride, but it’s a ride I’m going to have to take”. This can include crying, venting to friends and family or in my case writing until I lose all feelings in my fingers :)! No matter the path taken exploring feelings and finding peace is the essential goal.

Let’s face it, feelings and emotions can bring out some scary things. And if your emotional journey gets a little too deep for you to handle, seek the help of professional guidance to help properly channel your thoughts. Merely hiding from the root of the problem only delays one’s healing and will eventually come back later in life only to haunt you again.

What is it that you are hiding from? If we are all striving for a “New Beginning” that doesn’t mean we forget about past worries that brought us here in the first place. My advice would be to allow whatever is holding you back to face it in due time and head on. The journey will be different for everyone, but hopefully peace of mind and breakthroughs will be the end result. And as the title suggests, let the healing begin…

Until next time, stay blessed, beautiful and divinely favored!
