I came across a social media post which offered these words, “You can’t heal in the same environment that made you sick.”
Meaning, we can’t heal – emotionally, physically, spiritually – if we stay in a work situation, relationship, community, etc., which has affected our health in a negative way.
Today, Lynn is recording a podcast where she makes the point the heart is different than other muscles in our body as they can heal through regeneration. For example, if we are playing a sport and get hurt, the injured muscle, thanks to muscle stem cells, can divide and regenerate. However, the heart does not have these cells and therefore cannot heal itself. It requires, as she put it, “an external impetus or influence.”
If you are looking to heal something in your life it might be worth reflecting on if you need to identify a new environment, or that which external to where you are now, to begin that process.
