Hidden Wings

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Her strength was hidden by her fears. 

A cloak that covered her great powers, making her seem weak. 

Her focus was always directed on the future, yet the darknesses of the past continued to try and drown her, it tried to sink her, dragging her deep below the surface of the present moment she so longed to see. 

A light was bright within her, guiding her, and others. 

Yet, she never saw this light, though she was told about it by many.

The storms that chased her kept her focused on the fears that she was determined to conquer. 

What she saw was darkness, fear and worry.

Doubts plagued her thoughts, poisoning her mind like chains, dragging her down.

The depth of her seas took her under, yet she always found ways to swim back up to the surface to breathe. 

Yet, not for long. 

Storms constantly took her under, so she learned to breathe underwater. 

She found her strength within the depths, finding peace in her solace, she found her ground to stand on, deep within the storm under the sea that surrounded her, on sands at the bottom of the ocean. 

In the deep depths of the sea, she found her way, she finally saw the light that others had been guided by whenever she was near. 

On a day that seemed ordinary, she found she had wings.

Learning how to swim with them under water, she wondered if they could also take her above the surface. 

She kicked off from the sands on the bottom of the ocean floor.

Pushing through the cold waters, she emerged, flying above the sea, into the clouds above.

She realized she could also fly.

You Can’t Force What Is Not Meant To Be

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Nature has a way of guiding us.

Teaching us to let things be.

We can’t force anything that’s not meant to be.

Man has a way of wanting to control.

Nature shows us that we must let go of control.

There is a process of how things are.

No matter what you do, if it is not for you, it will not work.

You can try to push it.

You can try to pull it along.

But how far do you need to go, forcing what is not meant to be to try and fit where it doesn’t belong?

–

We all go through changes.

This is life.

Part of being human is continuous evolution.

We don’t stay the same.

So when we try to stay all and continue to do the same routines that are no longer fit for us, it’s going to become uncomfortable.

Just like wearing clothes we have grown out of.

Or working at a job that we are over qualified for, because we have taken classes to move beyond that position.

When it’s time to move on, we will feel it.

And if we continue to try to wear those clothes, or stay in that job that no longer fits us, there will be big signs that force us to move on.

Have you ever worn pants that spit up the… backside? – I have…. Not fun!

If you’re feeling pushed to move on, listen.

If you are feeling the need to find a new place in life, go for it.

We can’t stay small if we have grown bigger.

We can’t expect to fit into places that we have been working so hard to move away from.

So go.

Get out there.

Make room for your new growth.

Re-pot, re-pant, re-job, or re-locate yourself.

There is no better way to feel more comfortable than to listen to that energy and MOVE ON!

Your growth deserves energy to move.

Your new life is waiting for you.

Breathe in Life

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Life is better at the beach. 🏖️

  • Take time to take care of you.

–

Life blows by.

All of a sudden, it’s the next year. The next season, or the next century.

–

How often are you slowing down to remember what brings you joy and peace?

–

How often are you remembering to breathe. Not just to live, but to feel life.

–

Be with this moment.

–

Breathe in this moment.

–

Life goes by quickly.

–

Stop counting the second and the regrets.

–

Start counting your blessings and your breaths.

💜

Sit with Yourself

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Sit with yourself.

Let the fears and worries swim around you. 

Then let the universe show you that there is nothing to worry about. 

There is nothing to fear. 

Sit with yourself. 

Remember who you are. 

Remember why you are here 

Sit with yourself.

Relish in the silence. 

Appreciate the nature that surrounds you. 

Sit with yourself. 

Lean in. 

Listen to the whispers of your heart. 

What are they saying…

Sit with yourself. 

Be alone. 

Walk quietly.

Let the thoughts trickle away. 

Be still. 

Be silent. 

Breathe. 

You are safe. 

Love yourself. 

You are enough

Darkness Tried to End this Life

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Memories come up from times when life felt so close to the edge.

Life seemed like something so close to the end.

A mind so cluttered, so filled with fear.

A body so riddled with substances and unbalanced from the chase of night and day.

Thoughts fading away, worries taking over, friends with two faces taking up too much space.

There were times of silence towards the ones who were closest.

There were moments of sadness that lasted for days.

Yet, beyond the darkness, through the silence, there still seemed to be some light.

Falling away…

Falling under…

Never too deep, but just deep enough.

Finally one day, tired of suffering…

A reach up, a crawl, a walk and a run, back to life.

Back to peace.

Yet, never truly to feel without the darkness.

A darkness that had the deep calls for the ending.

Though, the darkness is not meant to call upon us all.

Some must just taste it, to see why we must turn away.

Back to the light.

In the light we must stay, but never to forget the bite of darkness that will never fully go away.

A Journey Persisted

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

For as long as she could remember, she knew there would be something special for her…

For as long as she could remember, she knew she could never give up on believing in herself….

As the years went by, she continued to fall and then crawl through life’s challenges,

Until one day she remembered she could walk.

Then she quickly started to run.

She began sprinting, jumping and then finally she flew.

When she discovered her wings, she learned to float over those who didn’t believe in her or see her for who she was.

She didn’t worry about being alone, for she was always surrounded by so many who saw her for who she was and loved her no matter what, even through months and years of silence.

Whooshing through trees, flying beside mountain tops, she soared high above the clouds.

She flew up to the stars and zoomed back down, reaching the oceans and diving in like a sea creature, moving through the waters with great force.

Back to the surface, letting the air dry her off, she would then find a safe place to land.

Not for long though, as she found her place to be in the sky.

She knew she wasn’t like many others.

She knew she was made differently and created on purpose, for a purpose that was all her own.

Only she could know what that was, and what she was here for.

Though all the pieces may not make sense to others, she knew each one was meant for her, even the pieces that didn’t fit into the whole picture.

One day, maybe far off down the road, she would tell her story.

But for now, she will just continue to fly, soaring on her own, gliding from tree to tree, taking breaks on the mountain tops…

Solitude, this is her happy place.

At last, she knew, her purpose was there all along.

To be continued….

🤍

Healing Journey

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Sending pictures,

Sending texts,

Looking for love,

Looking for validation.

Trying to live up to everyone else’s expectations.

Hoping for love.

Looking for acceptance.

What is this life without outside validation.

Here me out.

Here me now.

See me fully.

See me wholly.

I am lost.

I am naked.

I am broken.

I am aching.

Cure me.

Fix me.

Heal me quickly.

The pains of this torture are slowly killing me.

Let me be.

Let me grow.

The only way is for me to be alone.

Find me lost.

Find me sad.

Leave me broken,

Leave me be.

I am healing,

I am picking up the scattered pieces of what’s left of me.

-M.

Love and Relationships

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Why do we think love from another will satisfy us and solve our problems?

For too long I have thought this.

Find a mate, “the one”, and all will be fixed.

Walking a way from dating was the best fixer of my many of my problems.

Instead I took time to learn to go within.

Learning to love myself.

Learning to focus on my growth and my path was the best choice for my life.

Not everyone is meant for someone.

Not everyone wants to be in a relationship or have all that comes with having a mate.

Some of us need this lifetime to heal and grow and find peace in solitude.

When you learn to look within and seek out what is truly right for you, you can stop spending your energy on what is not allowing you to truly heal.

Direct your focus.

Allow your truth to come out.

Only you know what is right and best for you.

Only you can make the choices that fit with your life and your needs.

🌸

  • Single by choice, for my highest good. Self-care, self-growth, focused on my purpose and on my path. And Grateful for that.

🌸

Trust the Process

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Everything you are doing is guiding you towards where you are focusing your attention.

If you have certain goals or desires, allow yourself to focus on them so you can be pulled into that direction.

Have faith that each challenge and experience is guiding you towards those desires.

It might not always feel as though you are on the right path, but as long as you are still here, living and breathing, you are still on your path.

Each experience helps you become more connected to those desires.

Each challenge chisels away more of what is not necessary and strengthens what needs to be strengthened so that you can be better suited for your desired experiences.

This existence is to allow you to grow and heal to become more aware of yourself and your purpose.

You are doing a great job.

Keep pushing.

Keep learning.

Keep trusting.

You are making moves and connecting to your deepest desires.

Trust the path that is laid out before you and understand that each new turn, each new hill, each new speed bump is here to help you move forward with greater strength.

Keep going.

You are doing excellently well, with exponential efforts.

Keep going.

You are almost there.

-M.

Love Yourself Enough

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

You are the leader of your life.

Your feet go where your mind goes.

Travel lightly and intuitively, so that you can allow an open mind to the intentions of others.

Ask the hard questions.

Listen to their truths.

Read between the lines of their words and the energy that comes with it.

So many are here to test you.

Trust the process of healing and unfolding.

You go where your mind goes.

There is so much more goodness waiting for you, just keep going.

Believe that you are here for a purpose and trust that your boundaries will also help guide your way to where you want to be and who you should be surrounded by.

Mirror what it is that you desire for your life.

Only you can get yourself there.

Be strong in your self-love so that others can see how you know you deserve to be treated.

Leave no room for those who want to take away your power.

You are in control.

Take the reins and hold on tight.

Love yourself enough.

-M.
