Whether we heal or not, we keep living—as long as we're alive. But healing isn't separate from living. It's part of it.

The quality of our aliveness depends on how much we've healed, how deeply we've accepted ourselves, and how well we've tended to our wounds.

It all boils down to the answer to one question: Are we living a full life… or just half-alive?

Absolutely love your reflection Divya, especially the last line. Healing supports us to live a life that's ours. Thank you!

You are right I think. Certainly in my experience life and healing continue hand in hand

Agree. I am starting to see that opening up to healing different layers opens up life in so many new ways, and they seem to feed off each other.

Oh nice, yes I notice the same. It’s the natural evolution of this process.

Wow so many lines where I resonated deeply Alexandra! I can only mirror back what you are saying - it is all connected. Healing allows us to forgive, make space to be free and love totally.
