[[Parts]] of us sometimes worry that dedicating time and attention to our own healing and awakening is selfish. But [[Peace, freedom, joy, love, and beauty are contagious]]. So healing our [[Parts]] and investigating the true nature of our experience allows us to access awaken to our true [[Self]], which naturally embodies and emanates peace, freedom, joy, connection, and beauty. And [[Trauma, conflict, subjection, despair, and hate are contagious]] too. So forgoing spiritual investigation and psychological healing is really a disservice to those around us and those to come who would have otherwise benefited from the ripples of our love.
