A Safe Place to Begin: Healing After Trauma

Healing after trauma is not a straight path. It's more like a spiral—sometimes deep, sometimes confusing, often tender. Yet always sacred.

If you are someone walking through the aftermath of pain—visible or invisible—this is for you.

You are not broken. You are healing. And healing is a sacred unfolding.

For those navigating the storm of mental health, healing isn’t about "getting over it." It’s about honoring what happened, then gently choosing, again and again, to come home to yourself.

Remember these words:

You may feel lost, but you are on the path.

You may feel stuck, but even stillness is part of healing.

You may feel fragile, but your softness is strength.

You are held. You are healing. You are sacred.

Speak to yourself as someone worth loving—because you are. You are not beyond repair. You are becoming whole, one breath, one choice, one sunrise at a time.

Let healing be steady flowing. Let your heart open when it's ready. You are allowed to rest. You are allowed to begin again.
