My path towards healing and the heart

These past few years have without question been my most difficult ones.

In short, I have had my world completely rocked by a handful traumatic experiences and the imprints they have left on me. My worst traumas either left me feeling immediately raw and horribly deficient of serotonin and stability, or eventually crept up on me and ended up shaping my world-view with seemingly endless turbulent expressions of my conscious and subconscious fears.

Despite how difficult navigating these experiences has been, I am obviously still here today, and I’m deeply thankful to be generally sane and stable. In many ways I consider myself better off than I was before these experiences; I’ve become far more resilient, developed a much deeper sense of compassion for others and their pain, and learned techniques to help me ground myself, express and process what’s going on in my mind, and ultimately to heal.

When I was in the depths of what felt like a psychotic break, feeling like I was just hanging on to the edges of my sanity, I wasn’t sure it would ever end. There were many times where I felt like I was being given the option to surrender into insanity, to let go of my grip on reality. But each time that option came I refused it, knowing that I have so much more to give to this world.

The path of severe struggle and those who have helped me through it have together been teaching me how to connect deeply to my heart. I now know that love is the strongest force in the universe.

Through this path, I have also discovered that one of my missions in life is to support others on their own journeys of feeling safe, healing and realizing who they truly are.

This website will be a place where I share about my experiences – to support my own meaning-making and as a way to help others. I look forward to sharing more.
