Description

Summary

In this episode, Liv and Meli discuss the question of whether healing can be toxic. They both strongly believe that healing can indeed be toxic, especially in hyper-spiritual communities. They argue that healing can become a distorted expression and an attachment that prevents people from fully living their lives. They emphasize the importance of slowing down the healing process and taking time to appreciate the progress already made. They also highlight the need to shift the focus from constantly fixing oneself to embracing one's wholeness and creating in the present moment. Liv and Meli discuss how deep healing mode can sometimes become a form of resistance to creating, and how they have found a more productive way of moving through the world. They emphasize the importance of shifting the energy from healing to creation, while still acknowledging the need for healing as it arises. They also discuss the role of shadow energy in transmutation and the power of choosing to create even in the face of pain and grief. The conversation delves into the nature of resistance and its role in keeping us small and afraid of our true power. They highlight the importance of recognizing and addressing resistance in order to access our full potential for creation. They also discuss the signs of resistance, such as the need to defend oneself or justify one's actions, and the importance of surrendering to what is and allowing oneself to be with the present moment. In this conversation, Liv and Meli discuss the potential toxicity of the healing journey. They explore the importance of recognizing resistance as a compass and teacher, and the freedom of choice in how we respond to the world. They also challenge the narrow definition of creativity and encourage everyone to see themselves as artists in their own lives. They conclude by highlighting the magic of healing as a tool to access our inner creator and build a life of joy and pleasure.
