Hello everyone.
One thing I've really noticed about healing is that relationships often begin changing too.
And I don't think people talk about this enough.
And I don't necessarily mean because people are toxic or low vibration or suddenly you become better than other people.
I think what often happens is that many relationships unconsciously organize around survival patterns,
Right?
The people-pleasing,
The caretaking,
Over-functioning,
Self-abandonment,
Hyper-vigilance and performing and staying quiet to keep the peace.
And a lot of us Learn those patterns very early in life.
We learned who we needed to become in order to maintain connection and to avoid conflict or feel emotionally safe.
And then healing begins,
Right?
The nervous system starts softening and the body stops bracing as much.
And you begin becoming more honest with yourself.
And you begin noticing what drains you.
What hurt.
What feels misaligned,
And what requires you to leave yourself.
And eventually boundaries begin appearing where they may have never have existed before.
You say no more.
You stop overexplaining.
You stop rescuing everyone.
And you stop shapeshifting to maintain connection.
And that changes the energetic structure of relationships.
Especially if the relationship was unconsciously built around your silence,
Your accommodation,
And your caretaking or your fear of abandonment.
And this can be painful sometimes,
Right?
Because healing doesn't only bring peace,
Sometimes it also brings grief.
And some relationships deepen through honesty,
Some become more spacious,
And some become more authentic.
And some begin struggling because the old survival agreement is no longer being maintained.
And that doesn't automatically make anyone bad.
But healing changes the field between people.
And I think this is one of the reasons healing can feel both beautiful and disorienting at the same time.
Because as we heal,
We don't just change internally,
We begin relating differently too.
Thank you so much for being here.
And remember,
Healing is not about becoming someone else.
It's about learning how to stay with yourself.
