Ep. 137 - Understanding Your Story and How That Helps You Heal

Hi everyone!

It's spring break for me and my family, and we've fortunately had the chance to get some extra sunshine, vitamin sea, and family bonding.

Plus, I've loved the extra time I've had to reflect on things, to dig deeper into the why and purpose of things... (I've learned to relish any moments I have time to take a deeper dive!) 

While I was swimming in the quiet waters of the ocean, I started mulling over Understanding Your Story and How That Helps You Heal. (I love how nature helps things flow.)

These thoughts were also inspired by certain events in my life -- both past and present -- as well as the usual ups and downs that I've witnessed in other people's journeys.

After all, the more you get to know yourself, the greater access you have to self-healing. 

That's the big WHY in Understanding Your Story.

I've also borrowed some ideas from the arts, and how to weave the story-telling process into understanding your own. 

And I'll share with you an example of how I've applied this in my life.
