Talk/Affirmation: I Choose To Stay (When Healing Hurts)

When I choose to stay.

The healing that begins when I sit with pain.

Today's gentle message for this you in transition is this.

Healing can hurt,

Not because we're breaking,

But because we're becoming.

And what once felt like background noise now speaks clearly,

Because you've stopped running and started listening.

Let's go to the wisdom of the waves for a micro dose of insight and inspiration.

Before,

Pain was a background noise that you pushed aside.

Of course,

It's part of the human condition to do so.

But now you're listening,

You're meeting it with presence instead of panic.

And yes,

It speaks,

Sometimes loudly,

Because no one was listening before.

Are you willing to be with your pain from time to time?

Because healing begins with gentle willingness.

This is the healing that begins when you sit with pain.

Like gently anchoring in deep water,

You steady yourself without needing to swim away.

Emotional healing does not mean you're broken.

Healing begins when you shift how you relate to your inner world.

With gentle willingness,

You create space where resistance once lived.

And in that space,

Healing manifests.

I am willing to sit with my discomfort,

Not to fix it,

But to understand and soften to it.

I trust that even pain has wisdom when held with care.

I am willing to be with my pain from time to time,

Because I know healing begins with gentle willingness.

This is the healing that begins when I sit with pain.

And so it is.

I sit beside the pain I feel,

Empowered now,

I help me heal.

I sit beside the pain I feel,

Empowered now,

I help me heal.

I sit beside the pain I feel,

Empowered now,

I help me heal.

I sit beside the pain I feel,

Empowered now,

I help me heal.

I sit beside the pain I feel,

Empowered now,

I help me heal.
