One of the greatest sources of honest and true wisdom lives within the darker corners of your soul. Going to this place can be pretty scary at times, but if you actually spend some time there you can grow a whole lot faster than you could if you avoided it.
Why?
When you start taking the time to nourish old wounds, you finally begin a healing process that has been waiting for you for such a long time.
When you go into the shadows with compassion and love and actually attempt to understand the parts of you that could be experiencing discomfort you give yourself the chance to heal.
Wouldn't it be amazing to have a life that is full of healing instead of one where you are constantly running from all of the pain you have ever felt?
But how do you really put this into action?
Meditation. If you dive into deep meditation and allow yourself to go to the harder places in your life, and actually spend some time sitting in those places, you will begin to feel and experience old pains but from a much healthier angle. You aren't actually in the moment itself but bringing your love and nourishment to something old that happened. As you continue to breathe through this, you learn how to sit in the tougher moments of life.
Over time, you are looking to get close enough to these dark places without actually getting completely overwhelmed by the emotions they bring up. When you can start to go back to these places without actually taking yourself out of the game completely, you can truly begin the healing process.
Most people in this world simple run from their problems. However, if you continue takings this journey over and over again, you will learn that you don't have to actually avoid anything to truly not experience it anymore. In fact, you learn that by experiencing something, you actually give yourself the chance to fully heal from it.
The secondary benefit is that you get to unravel your past which allows you to come back into the present moment.
So take a dive into doing this type of work and see if it works for you! It could be something that leads to huge amounts of healing.
