Embrace healing and growth from "summary" of Psychopath Free (Expanded Edition) by Jackson MacKenzie
Healing and growth are not linear processes. They are messy, non-linear, and often unpredictable. There will be days when you feel like you're making progress, and days when you feel like you've taken ten steps backward. It's important to remember that this is all part of the journey. Embracing healing and growth means accepting that it won't always be easy, but it will always be worth it. In order to truly heal and grow, you must be willing to confront your pain and face it head-on. This means allowing yourself to feel all of the emotions that come with it - the anger, the sadness, the confusion. It means acknowledging that what happened to you was not okay, and that you deserve better. Healing and growth also require a level of self-awareness that can be difficult to achieve. It means taking a long, hard look at yourself and your own behaviors, and being willing to make changes where necessary. This can be a scary process, but it is necessary in order to move forward. One of the most important aspects of embracing healing and growth is learning to set boundaries. This means saying no to things that do not serve you, and surrounding yourself with people who lift you up rather than tear you down. It means learning to prioritize your own needs and well-being above all else. Finally, embracing healing and growth means being patient with yourself. It means understanding that true healing takes time, and that there will be setbacks along the way. It means being kind to yourself, and giving yourself the grace and compassion that you would give to a friend.- Healing and growth are not destinations to be reached, but ongoing processes that require dedication, self-reflection, and a willingness to do the hard work. It is a journey that will be different for everyone, but one that is ultimately necessary in order to live a fulfilling and authentic life.
