Physical wounds take time and nurturing to heal. It is the same for emotional wounds. Just because they aren't visible to our eye doesn't mean that it needs any less nurturing or time to heal. Because they aren't visible you might sometime have the belief that you can rush through it, bury it, and or ignore it, which, of course, doesn't work.
So think of your emotional wound as a physical wound. Check it everyday and take care of it. Make sure it is healing properly. Change the bandages as often as you need and clean it daily. Give it love and attention. When it still feels sore and tender, pamper it. Just like you don't judge a physical wound, don't judge an emotional wound either. Nurture yourself and take all the time needed to heal.
