Whether we like to admit it or not, a lot of life involves pain and hurt. However, it is our job to release it and move forward from it.

Like the saying goes, ‘Turn lemons into lemonade.’

There is a lot of negativity and hate in The World but I am not interested in amplifying that. I am more aligned with healing, progression and moving forward with an open heart.

As such, it is up to all of us to do so regardless of what has happened to us and to do so with a lightness to let go and surrender situations that become to heavy for us.

There are many ways to do this but one of my favorite ways is to affirm it by repetition or inner-acknowledgement.

Here are 9 affirmations for healing from trauma.

1. I release the burden of victimization.

2. I open myself up to healing.

3. I move forward with love and grace.

4. I am open to being humble.

5. I practice forgiveness.

6. I am in the flow of life, what is not meant for me is not coming with me.

7. My growth is my choice.

8. I am connected to divinity and in divine order, when it is time to let go I shall.

9. I am in a perpetual state of healing.
