Why? Because healing requires stepping out of our comfort zone, and this terrifies the subconscious. Yes, we know we’re stuck and miserable. But it’s familiar territory. We can manage it. If we venture out and move beyond this dysfunctional safety zone, we’ll no longer have complete control.
Eeeek!!! Scary stuff.
Healing began for me on the day I realized there was a “civil war” going on inside me. One part of me (fear) demanded to be rescued. It lived in a fantasy world and truly believed someone would appear out of nowhere to save me. This toxic belief was holding me hostage.
The other part of me (my heart) was trying to set me free. It was grounded in reality, not fantasy. My heart knew no one was coming to rescue me. It told me I didn’t need to be rescued, because I already had everything I needed to heal and restore.
My heart wanted to be my personal cheerleader. However, it was up to me to take action. So I did. I tuned out fear, tuned into my heart, and took that first step.
I made myself a top priority, and I did this every day. It was the only way to create the necessary internal shift from living in fear to living in hope.
Every day I put self-care at the top of my list. One day I would reach out for support. The next day I would do something good for my body, like making healthy changes in my diet or signing up for an exercise class. The next day I would read an inspiring book. And so on. I took action like this every single day to prove to myself I was serious about healing.
That’s how you walk the healing journey: one self-loving day at a time. No mysterious rescuer is coming to save you. But there’s no need. You can rescue yourself. Just listen to your heart. It knows!
