So You Really Want To Start Healing?
Spending times in the dark and murky places of your life is scary, painful, and troubling. On the other hand, it's something that is incredibly necessary if you want to start the process of healing yourself.
Why you may ask?
Because taking the time to acknowledge the painful events that have happened in your life is one of the only ways to truly start a process that your heart and soul has been requesting for a long time.
When you go into the shadows with compassion and love and actually attempt to understand the parts of you that could be experiencing discomfort you give yourself the chance to heal.
How incredible would that be? How wonderful would it be to eventually heal the holes in your soul which have been eating at you whether you know it or not for years on end?
But how do you take this journey?
The quickest way to get to the darkest shadows of your life is to enter into a state of meditation. Allow yourself to go back to the deepest and darkest places you can go to at that time, and sit in those places. Relive those moments and watch the emotions of your life swirl around you. Continue to breathe. Continue to stay in the moment as much as you can.
The major ability that you need to develop when you go to this place is getting near enough to these events and emotions so you can actually feel them though not getting so close that you become completely engulfed by them.
Going into the shadows takes a whole lot of work and practice, but the journey in itself is worth it. It's worth it because if you do it right, you can start to feel painful events and the emotions that surround those events release from your life. You can start to heal. You can start to breathe again.
The secondary benefit is that you get to unravel your past which allows you to come back into the present moment.
Take a dive into doing shadow work. See what happens? It might be one of the greatest journeys of your life. And hell, you could really start to heal.
