#7 - Overcoming the Fear of Healing: 3 Strategies to Try this Year

Three strategies you can implement to overcome your fear of healing in 2024.

I don’t know about you, but I used to worry about when was the perfect time in my life to heal from my past abuse. I was young, starting a new family and it seemed if I waited, I wouldn’t be able to get to it for at least several years. What I learned was that there is no perfect time. That healing would have to fit in with my life the way it was. Busy, emotionally draining, and demanding!

I needed to freshen up on my perspective and embrace the change, pain, and inconvenience of healing. Most importantly, I needed to overcome the fear I had regarding healing. I needed to step out of my comfort zone and make a conscious effort and shake things up in my life. Yes, it scared me a bit.
