Some days you’ll feel like you’re making progress. Other days, everything will feel like it’s falling apart. Both are part of healing—and neither means you’re doing it wrong.
This post dives into:
- The myth of “always feeling better” during healing
- Why rest is a form of resistance and recovery
- Emotional whiplash: how to handle conflicting feelings
- Small acts of care that support your nervous system
- Permission to do less, even when your inner critic protests
Takeaway:
Healing doesn’t follow a straight line. It’s spiraled, messy, and often quiet. But every time you choose gentleness over pressure, you’re healing—even if it doesn’t look like it.
