Ep. 61- Hosts' Check-In
/After many requests from listeners, hosts Becky, Autumn, and Tiffany come together to check-in on how they are really doing in their personal healing journeys.
The team shares what they see of their individual growth looking back over the years and the hope they feel looking forward.
Each host shares what is currently helping them, including focusing on the physical side of healing, increased awareness of old patterns, and more. They talk about resources that are helping them currently, like the power of walking (and bilateral stimulation), self-compassion, and sitting in the quiet when they can.
A discussion about the awareness of self and their own needs helps us to see the importance of reconnecting to ourselves. They share that listening to their bodies and trusting themselves has been key in this journey.
The hosts remind us about the importance of not doing this alone and that there are more and more resources available, if we will step into the light and look. It is also vital to remember that everyone’s journeys are different and that to focus on what works for you and helps you, even if it is different from others.
In the struggle that is still there, the team shares the places they are stuck, including old patterns, fear, self-doubt, and getting stuck in their own heads, and how they handle those things in a better way now.
Becky, Autumn, and Tiffany wanted to share some important reminders including: “Be curious, not judgmental” and the reassurance that “It gets better”.
Learning and growing from our struggles and pain can be part of this process and Rabbi Steve Leder reminds all of us:
If you have to go through Hell, don’t come out empty handed.
