Welcome to a sacred corner of our community — the space where we honor the truth that your healing must come first.“Physician, heal thyself” is not a rebuke. It is an invitation.A reminder.A revelation. Anyone doing the work of ministry, caregiving, advocacy, or trauma support is often taught to be strong for others, to carry the weight, to keep going even while bleeding. But the truth is: You cannot pour from a wounded place without wounding yourself further. You cannot lead while ignoring your own pain. You cannot walk others to wholeness while bypassing your own wounds. Here in this space, we honor the courage it ok takes to: - face your trauma - acknowledge your patterns - slow down - rest - build boundaries - tell the truth about what hurts - and take responsibility for your own healing This is the work.This is the calling.This is the transformation. You do not need to be perfect to be here. Youdo not need to have your life together. You just need to be honest and willing. ✨ Reflection Questions for You 1. What part of your story is asking for attention right now? 2. Where is your body telling the truth your mind has been avoiding? 3. What healing practice do you need to return to? 4. What pattern are you ready to break with compassion? ✨ Reminder You are not healing alone.This community stands with you, not as experts judging your journey, but as travelers walking beside you. This is your space.Your breath.Your restoration.Your beginning. Welcome.

Leaning Into Healing Skool • Immersion Ministries Rev. Dr. Noel Simms WELCOME, FAMILY This rhythm is NOT about: ❌ pushing through pain ❌ pretending to be strong ❌ spiritualizing trauma ❌ “enduring” wounds quietly ❌ bypassing emotions ❌ proving anything to God or others This is a liberation rhythm, a healing rhythm, a trauma-informed rhythm. God isn’t asking you to “hold on” or “endure suffering.” God is inviting you to: - listen to your body - honor your emotions - release what harms you - reclaim what belongs to you - and live as a whole human being This is a rhythm of restoration, not endurance. ⭐ MONDAY — ALIGNMENT DAY Theme: Center yourself for the week. Scripture: Isaiah 43:1–2 Purpose: Not to “perform” for God, but to ground yourself in who you are. Practices: - Read Isaiah 43 and notice the gentleness in the text - Set one emotional, one spiritual, and one purpose intention - Pray: “Lord, align me with what brings life, release what brings harm.” - Move your body at your own pace (no burnout) ⭐ TUESDAY — TRUTH DAY Theme: Honest self-awareness, not self-judgment. Scripture: Psalm 139:23–24 Purpose: To explore what’s happening in you — not to “fix” yourself. Practices: - Read Psalm 139 as an invitation, not a command - Write one truth you’re learning, one emotion you’re noticing - Pray: “God, help me see myself with compassion, not condemnation.” - Do something nurturing ⭐ WEDNESDAY — BOUNDARIES & SOVEREIGNTY DAY Theme: Protecting your spirit is holy. Scripture: Proverbs 4:23 Purpose: Boundaries are not walls — they are self-respect. Practices: - Read Proverbs 4:23 through a trauma-informed lens - Identify one boundary that preserves your peace - Pray: “God, give me permission to choose myself when needed.” - Release any guilt for saying no ⭐ THURSDAY — HEALING & COMPASSION DAY Theme: Be gentle with what still hurts. Scripture: Psalm 147:3 Purpose: Healing is not endurance — it is permission to feel without shame.

Family, trauma-informed work is holy work. It doesn’t just help you understand the wounds of others — it invites you to confront your own. When you do this work, something shifts: you begin to discern not only someone else’s patterns, fears, and coping strategies… but your own. And that level of awareness is sacred. Trauma-informed healing is not a metaphysical shortcut. It's not a miracle you shout your way into. Its not something religious language alone can solve. This is embodied work. It is somatic. It is honest it is slow. It is sacred. It asks you to pay attention to the nervous system, the body’s memory, the emotional triggers, the patterns you learned for survival. And instead of judging it or spiritualizing it, you learn to tend to it — with compassion, insight, and courage. Healing is not escape.Healing is integration.Healing is learning to carry your story differently, with truth, with breath, with God, and with community.
