Why healing sometimes looks like rage, boundaries, grief… and walking away from the light
There comes a point in every spiritual journey when “love and light” just… doesn’t cut it anymore.
Not because love isn’t real.
Not because light isn’t powerful.
But because they’ve been used to bypass what actually needs to be felt, seen, honored,and healed.
If you’ve ever sat in a circle, holding your tears back to stay “high vibe”…
If you’ve judged your anger, your grief, or your body’s no as “lower frequency”…
If you’ve smiled when your soul was screaming just to keep the peace —
Then you’ve tasted the poison hidden inside spiritual positivity.
And it’s time we talked about it.
What “High Vibes Only” Culture Gets Wrong
The idea that your vibration must be high at all times is a distortion.
It subtly teaches us:
- Pain = failure
- Rage = unevolved
- Boundaries = unloving
- Depression = misaligned
- Questioning = not spiritual enough
In this version of spirituality, your entire humanity becomes a problem to fix instead of a landscape to explore.
And healing gets confused with silencing what makes others uncomfortable.
But Real Healing Is Messy
You know what actual healing often looks like?
- Shaking on the floor in grief with snot on your altar cloth
- Screaming into a pillow because your mother never said sorry
- Saying NO to a friendship you’ve outgrown
- Canceling the cacao circle because you need solitude, not sacred small talk
- Not being sweet when your inner child wants a f*cking sword
That’s not regression.
That’s returning to yourself.
Healing is not about becoming someone else.
It’s about finally being safe enough to be who you’ve always been — loud, complex, fierce, soft, all of it.
Outgrowing “Positivity” Means Coming Home to Wholeness
When you stop filtering your emotions through a spiritual lens,you begin to meet them as sacred visitors — not symptoms to solve.
Grief becomes holy.
Anger becomes clarifying.
Fear becomes honest.
Boundaries become love in action.
And silence becomes more real than any chant.
You don’t abandon your practice.
You purify it.
You take it out of performance and into presence.
This Is the Era of Embodied Awakening
You are not here to be an Instagram oracle.
You are here to live awake.
And sometimes, living awake means:
- Leaving the circle
- Sitting with your shadow
- Deleting the affirmation
- Screaming in your car
- And letting Spirit hold your pain without needing you to reframe it
That is sacred.
That is spiritual.
That is what healing actually looks like.
You are not too much.
You are not too dark.
You are not failing your growth.
You are just outgrowing the version of healing that told you to be small, silent, and smiling. And NeoYug is right here with you — in the roar, in the grief, in the messy beauty of truth.
With reverence,
Team NeoYug
