You are going to be different!
Oh, there is so much to say about this beautiful thought by Morgan Harper Nichols. So much to look forward to, perspective to shift, stock to take. Our evolution should be never-ending. Today though, I would like to focus on the aspect of healing. Often, with new clients especially, a topic will come up and they will say, “I mean yes that was hard, but I went to therapy for that already.”
To which I usually respond, “And are you the same person today as you were when you ‘dealt’ with it?”
Here is the thing, we heal yes, and then we change and grow, and often times we healed from a version of ourselves that is long gone. I am not suggesting that you have to heal over and over again, but yeah, ya kinda do. When you face a new experience or one that seems to be on repeat, it may trigger feelings that stem from that old place that has new light shed on it. And, what is most beautiful here, is that it can be like art, you’ve seen this painting before, but never under this light, what it reveals to you may be more beautiful than you ever imagined possible.
So lean in, let the past be the past but don’t be afraid to be an observer of how it has shaped and molded you, AND how you can still learn and grow from old lessons. you are different today, more capable, better, armed with more knowledge and awareness. Turn towards your healing with a deep bow of gratitude and be humbled by what there is still available to learn.
I am here to help!
