How We Heal
We often treat healing like a project with a clear deadline, expecting a linear path from wound to recovery. But then, a memory surfaces, a familiar ache returns, and we feel like we've failed, or worse, that we're stuck. Alexandra Elle suggests that true healing isn't about erasing the past or simply "getting over it." Instead, it's a quiet, deliberate practice of holding space for our pain, acknowledging its presence without judgment, and gently weaving those experiences into the fabric of who we are now. This approach allows us to integrate our whole story, transforming what felt like a burden into a source of resilience and wisdom.
