THE WORK OF HEALING

What we’re here to learn, in this land of duality

In doing our work of healing, we develop on various levels of our being. In our spirit, we move from the separation of duality to unity. Within our mind, we move from wrong conclusions to truth. In our will, we move from forcing currents and withholding to receptivity and a willingness to give. Within our emotions, we move from being blocked and numb to being loving and flexible. In our bodies, we move from being frozen and split to being open and integrated.

Over time, we will develop discernment and a truer perception about the world around us. We will shift from our defensiveness, to a stance of openness and transparency. We’ll be wise in our self-disclosure and rigorous in self-honesty. We will learn to become vulnerable and we will know peace.

There are no “musts” and there are no “shoulds”. There is just an open invitation to see what aspects of healing need our attention. Then as we go along in life, we can begin to make different choices.
