The opposite of trauma isn’t “healed”,
it’s aliveness.

 

The opposite of trauma isn’t “healed”,
it’s connection.

 

The opposite of trauma isn’t “healed”,
it’s curiosity.

 

The opposite of trauma isn’t “healed”,
it’s play.

 

The opposite of trauma isn’t “healed”,
it’s presence.

 

The opposite of trauma isn’t to find perfection, to become a contained or even calm version of ourselves.

 

But rather, it’s where we begin to experience what couldn’t exist when  all our body could do was survive.
