Are You Ready to Heal?

Healing and pain go hand-in-hand: you can experience both in the body, in the mind, and even through emotions.

Healing for me started years ago when I tore the ligaments in the SI joint of my back, prematurely ending my dance career. At that time, I was on scholarship at the Marin Ballet Theater in San Francisco and had always dreamed of being a dancer; in fact, I never thought that I would do anything else.

Through my injury, I experienced so much pain and suffering, however, it was only the physical pain that I thought needed to heal. I didn't realize at the time how much emotional and mental damage I had also built up. A lot of anger was carried and stored for a later time, and it took years for me to heal from every aspect of the injury.

Sound familiar?

This is what pain can do to us. We store it up and never really see it outside of its physical ailments. But what about your mind? And what about your spirit?

Allowing yourself to properly heal from any type of pain is the only way to create a sound wholeness among your body, mind, and soul.

So ask yourself this--are you ready to heal?
