Collective Action Magazine Edition 3. June 2023

“Self-healers meticulously examine every detail of their lives, noting patterns, from struggles with anxiety to cycles of shame and poverty that hinder the future. They refuse to accept darkness as their reality.”

Generations within families have become hosts of pain, abuse, and shame. Our mothers and great-grandmothers have endured immense suffering, passing down these experiences as a blueprint for womanhood. Self-healers possess a consciousness that yearns to break the chains of suffering. They willingly do the necessary work, recognising that their pain and suffering have not been in vain. They approach the path of healing with determination, aiming to heal the past so that they can pass on a legacy of victory and freedom to future generations. These warriors demand better opportunities and define love as something that heals, affirms, and celebrates. With intention and purpose, self-healers share their stories to break the cycle of abuse and help those who feel trapped. Self-healers meticulously examine every detail of their lives, noting patterns, from struggles with anxiety to cycles of shame and poverty that hinder the future. They refuse to accept darkness as their reality. They confront the discomfort of being in a dark space where secrecy prevails. They are aware of cultural scripts and religious dogmas that continue to suppress them. With intent, they redefine a future of healing, where they can thrive and flourish. Self- healers shine a spotlight on the beauty that awaits them. They grow through discomfort, aspiring to meet their authentic selves. They awaken to the sacred and conscious path of embracing their power and living their truth. Self-healers believe in the power and authority of their own voices. Life may have been dim, but they know that lightness can dawn, and freedom is possible. Healing is a treasure waiting to be discovered. So, go out there and do the necessary work of healing. Self-healers are healers, dreamers, and midwives, carrying hope, and dreams.
