Inclusive 'healing'

Lots of programmes, advice and guidance to heal exclude the existence of mental health illness, neurodiversity and disability. Its all well and good saying to be a 'healed person' looks like having emotional stability, but try achieving that with a mental illness which is based on having emotional instability.

It's all a good image to show that being the best version of yourself is to have a regular particular practice, but what if that practice is difficult for someone who is hearing impaired or has a chronic pain condition. It's all good to say this stuff coz it sounds like the right thing to say or what we've been told being healed or well should be. But how many people it excludes and who it further marginalises is not OK.

So let's be real, let's normalise normal and promote that we are unique individuals who won't fit into the generic 'should' moulds. Just love yourself harder. There's your answer.
