Welcome to another episode of Returning: A podcast to return to yourself and the wisdom within. In this episode we get curious about how long it takes to heal. Often we have to release the timelines on healing in order for that healing to truly arrive. This episode grew out of an insightful chat I had with a friend all about the frustration we feel when we’re trying so hard to shift a pattern or release a behavior or forgive a relationship but just… can’t… quite… get there. Despite our best intentions and devoted commitment to ‘doing the work’ - often we have to release the timelines on healing in order for that healing to truly arrive. Zooming out and holding the bigger picture, we’re reminded that there are often more cogs that need to turn than just our own in order for the true healing to happen. “We can be devoted to our own work - and - there are so many threads both seen and unseen, that are interweaving to conspire towards that true state of healing.” - Rebecca Campbell   Key Timestamps: 00:18 - The mysterious timing of healing is alive for me right now. 03:24 - Opening Sacred Space. 04:01 - My own experience with the mysterious timing of healing. 06:07 - The moment when healing finally happened. 07:10 - We can do our role, but things need to shift in the system as well. 09:43 - You are not alone… 12:02 - Soul Inquiry   Soul Inquiry Soul Inquiry is a practice where we enter a direct dialogue with our inner self.  The Soul Inquiry prompt for this episode is: Where in your life are you open to receiving healing?
