We all know healing can be a long and arduous process, especially for those of us with a penchant for being so much in the head.

But what if there was another way?

In this episode, we'll explore the idea that healing doesn't always have to be so heavy.

I talk about the importance of play and creativity in the healing process, and how we can use these activities to reconnect with our inner child and find joy, even (especially) in the midst of difficult times.

Key points:

• The limitations of traditional therapy and journaling
• The importance of reconnecting with our inner child
• How play and creativity can be powerful tools for healing
• How to find joy, even in the midst of difficult times
• Avoiding the pitfall of bypassing the hard work of healing
• Striking a balance between processing our pain and overextending our suffering
