🥣 👉My Kintsugi bowl has become an important piece in my therapy room... A few people are asking why I’m holding an axe on the YOU Magazine cover today (Last post). This video was the creative inspiration for the shoot. Since learning about kintsugi it has become a key concept that I hold onto personally. It reminds me that healing is not about pretending the worst never happened. By doing the work to heal, we can find new learning, new strength and new meaning from the hardest of seasons. More and more, I see courageous people online sharing their stories of recovery from hardship with the aim of helping others. To me, this is Kintsugi in practice. The more these difficult conversations happen, the more we learn as a society that psychological injury is a part of life. The more we learn that it can be a pivotal part of the story, but doesn’t have to be the end of the story. With healing and recovery we can find new beauty and meaning in life. Feel free to share / remix. More videos @drjulie More on this in my No.1 Sunday Times Bestselling book, Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? (Currently -50% off @ £7.50 inc delivery see link in bio).
