4 Common Obstacles that Hinder Our Healing Process

April 08, 20242 min read

God created our hearts minds and bodies to heal… As long as the conditions for healing are right..” - Adam Young

Introduction:

When we get a cold, if we rest, hydrate, and eat well, you can recover from a cold more quickly and effectively versus getting no sleep, being dehydrated and not giving our bodies proper nutrients to heal.

Our minds, emotions, and souls also follow suit. There are things that can deter or delay healing.

Embarking on the journey of healing often feels like navigating through a maze, where at every turn, we encounter obstacles that seem to block our path forward. These hurdles come in many shapes and sizes, but they all share one common trait: they make the road to recovery feel longer and more challenging. From downplaying our own struggles to feeling weighed down by self-contempt, each obstacle speaks to a deeply personal battle we face within ourselves.

In this exploration, we'll shine a light on four familiar barriers that can hinder our healing journey, drawing from our own experiences and shared struggles to understand how we can overcome them and move closer to the peace and healing we seek.

The 4 common obstacles that hinder or block our healing process

1. Minimizing your story

  • ​You think your past doesn’t affect you very much today.

  • Dismissing or discounting how your growing up years have shaped your neurons today and profoundly affects their stories today.

  • Comparing your story to other people’s pain and difficulty ​

  • “I shouldn’t complain, others have it so much worse”.

2. Spiritualizing the bad things happening to you and avoid engaging with what you have endured.

​Some individuals may inadvertently suppress their emotions, leading to unresolved trauma and prolonged suffering.

3. Self contempt

You can’t feel feelings if you have shame or self contempt. You need to feel your feelings to understand and process them, and ultimately allow for self-compassion.

4. Pace of your life

​Each of you have inner feelings thoughts longings - how much time do you notice your thought feelings and emotions?

​You cannot heal without a growing capability to be present with your thoughts and emotions.

​Some of us fear of what might be lurking.

​Others are afraid grief will pull us under and won’t get back up.

​But what if being present allows you to undergo the natural process of healing for it to be effective and efficient?

Can you believe that the only way out is through?
