Self-Reflective Questions For Healing Yourself

Reconnecting with your body, forgiving it, and showing it more kindness and love will help you rekindle your relationship with it.

You might wonder, “What does any of this have to do with my acne, allergies, hair fall, or eczema?” It has everything to do with it because you can’t really heal until you’re back in touch with your core, open to your spirit being enlivened, and feel like you deserve good health.

All of this starts with you getting back into your body and moving from a place of anger to one of compassion. All the cells in your body can hear everything your brain says. What you tell yourself affects your cells and your whole body. What you say changes the way your body works. 

If you are still mad at yourself for something or blame a situation for how you feel, you are not letting forgiveness and compassion in. You are in a disconnect. Because your body hears everything your brain says, you need to change that negative talk in your head to one of kindness. This isn’t about being happy and hopeful all the time because that’s not possible. But more than anything else, this is about being kind, compassionate, and gentle with yourself. It’s more about getting back together than about breaking up. What does it look like to get back together?

Ask yourself the following questions to help you find the exact cause of your illness:

• How do I feel about what’s going on inside my body? 

• What are the best words to describe it?

The answer to the question above will show what you feel about the person or situation making you sick.

• What am I not able to do or have because of my illness?

The answers to this question reveal one or more unfulfilled wishes.

• What would I be if I allowed myself to fulfill my desires?

• What would people think of me if I let myself fulfill my desires? ( insert answer from above)
• What would I think of myself if I allowed myself to fulfill my desires? (Write out as many things as they come up)

Once you find the belief that keeps you from being what you really want and need, you’ll have to work on it. The first step is to admit that you chose to believe this at some point in your life.

You thought that this belief would keep you from feeling the same pain over and over. 

Next, you should ask yourself if you still need to believe this in order to be happy. If you say yes, you’ve decided that your belief is still useful to you. You should keep believing it and act the same way you always have. But don’t think your life will change. Since you build your own life, the decision is up to you. Just know that your life will stay the same if you don’t go after what you want.

If you’ve decided that your belief is still partly true but makes you unhappy, check to see if it’s gotten weaker in the last few years. If it has, letting go will be easier. If you do this, you will be on the way to getting better.

When you know deep down that you want to change this belief, the only thing left to do is take steps to get what you want so you can be WHO YOU WANT TO BE.
