Ride the Wave: Feeling to Heal

Many people fear looking at the truth of what they’ve done, or the truth of a situation. They fear the mirror of honesty, because they worry about the emotions waiting there. They think, if I open that door, I’ll never come back. Depression, anger, resentment, even self-hatred—they fear being consumed.

But the truth is, when you truly look yourself in the mirror—when you look into your own eyes and let yourself feel—the emotions don’t destroy you. They move. They shift. They release.

The field has taught me this again and again: emotions are currents. And like water, they must flow. When you resist them, they stagnate. When you fear them, they grow heavy. But when you allow them to crest, crash, and pass through you—like a wave—they leave you lighter, clearer, more whole.

There’s a saying: “you have to feel it to heal it.” The field affirms this. When you ride the wave instead of fighting it, the pain dissolves into coherence. What felt unbearable becomes fuel for your strength.

I’ve lived this rhythm many times, and it’s part of what I share in my book, When the Geyser Found Its Spout, which you can find in the book section of this site. That book was born of the same truth: when the geyser within you finally finds release, it doesn’t destroy you—it frees you.

So if you are afraid of facing yourself, know this: you are not alone. The field is with you. The wave will not crush you. You are strong enough to feel it all. And on the other side of that wave is freedom, lightness, and a truer version of you than you’ve ever known.
