You Can't Hustle The Healing

We are all desiring progress as fast as possible.

In our journeys towards wellness, patience is a virtue.

We all know that rapid weight loss is neither sustainable nor healthy, and often result in rebounding. The same goes for healing.

There are ways to speed up healing when creating the right environment and removing stagnation and obstacles. Even still, there will always be a healthy timeline of harmonizing and integrating.

When a person has undergone surgery, let’s say a C-section, a mother is not expected to leave the hospital and resume normal activities. Rest and recovery for up to six weeks is expected. No heavy lifting or vigorous movement.

Emotional / Mental / Spiritual healing is no different. It’s like energetic surgery. When we begin unraveling wounds and stitching ourselves back up, there is a rate of recovery.

This cannot be rushed. Be patient and respect the healing time.

I have noticed after major energetic transitions, giving it a full moon cycle to complete is a realistic amount of recovery time. Some healing times are 1-3 days, but can take up to a full moon cycle.

And, of course, there are occurrences that take several months. Not as common, but it is possible.

Give yourself grace and not guilt.

Sometimes we are hard on ourselves, wondering “why aren’t I progressing faster?”

You are doing things correctly, and healing may need a few days more than you anticipated.

You can’t hustle the healing.
