In episode 73 of the Igniting Change, Finding Your Fire podcast, titled "6 Differences in Healing and Talk Therapy," Meena Puri dives into the distinction between deeper healing work and traditional talk therapy.
This episode was inspired by a concerned mother who feared her daughter might be retraumatized through therapy, based on past experiences. Meena reassures the mother by explaining her approach to healing.
Meena highlights the following differences between healing work and talk therapy:
Understanding the Bigger Picture: When discussing the past, the focus is on gaining a deeper understanding, asking significant questions, and recognizing our energetic contributions to our experiences. This shift in perspective directs attention to personal experiences rather than dwelling on external factors.
Healing Beliefs, not Just Behaviors: The goal of healing work is not to merely change external behaviors but to address the underlying beliefs that drive those behaviors. By focusing on internal transformation, individuals experience genuine change from within.
An Organic Healing Process: Healing does not adhere to a fixed schedule. When we commit to healing ourselves, what needs attention and what we are ready to address naturally emerges.
Therapist Consciousness: The level of consciousness of the therapist significantly influences the healing process. Meena emphasizes that her work is not merely a career but a calling, rooted in her own deep inner healing journey.
Oneness of the Body and Mind: Healing work recognizes the inseparable connection between the body and the mind. Physical symptoms can be manifestations of unhealed traumas, urging us to pay attention for true healing to take place.
Moving Beyond Behavior Management: Healing work goes beyond managing behaviors; it involves deep healing that ultimately removes the need for constant management. This allows individuals to flow with ease and align with their truest nature.
