The Purpose of Pain in Our Lives?

What’s The Purpose of Pain in Our Lives!?

Hello beautiful souls, Victoria Amador here from soulhealingtribe.com.

Major Takeaways from My Trainings, Personal Experiences and My Clients…

 

Over the past few years, I’ve participated in various trainings on alternative medicine, transpersonal therapy, and other programs. I want to share four major insights that have profoundly shaped my understanding. Hopefully, this knowledge can transform into wisdom for you as well!

1️⃣ Health is a Process, Not a State!

Dr. Bizkarra often speaks about a concept rooted in ancient shamanic wisdom:

Health is truth in thinking 🧠, beauty in feeling 💖, and goodness in doing ✨.

All three lead to true well-being. This perspective resonated deeply with me, especially on my journey of discovering the incredible wisdom of my body. By the end of this video, I hope you’ll understand why I align so much with Dr. Bizkarra’s philosophy of health.

2️⃣ Disease as a Path to Self-Awareness

Disease can reveal our unconscious shadows, leading us to self-awareness and growth. Bizkarra references this idea, tracing it back to Antonio Blay—someone truly ahead of his time. In the USA, we’ve gradually embraced similar philosophies as Blay, Steiner, and others, who emphasized that pain guides us back to our true path.

It took me years to truly accept and integrate this concept. For so long, I saw pain as an enemy rather than a messenger. But I’ve come to understand:

  • Pain and suffering are signals that we have deviated from our path.
  • The body is always guiding us back.
  • Even when I consciously believed in these ideas, embodying them took time—over seven years, at least.

A Personal Story 🌿

My grandmother instilled in me the belief that my childhood bone infection was a blessing. She saw it as proof that through her prayers, I had survived what doctors couldn’t save me from. While I wanted to believe her, deep down, I was bitter—harboring repressed anger about all the suffering I had endured.

For years, I blamed my body. I was furious at it for betraying me, for forcing me to crawl when I couldn’t walk, for making me feel weak. But one day, something clicked:

💡 It wasn’t my body that betrayed me—I was the one who had been betraying my body.

I neglected it. I refused to move. Even now, I struggle with this internal battle—the part of me that wants to sit and contemplate often wins over the part that wants to walk or exercise. It’s a daily challenge, but I accept it as part of my self-understanding.

3️⃣ Healing Is a Lifelong Journey

Healing doesn’t end—it evolves. We may complete a program for a specific issue, but the overall journey continues throughout our lives. Even as we approach death, we are still integrating and releasing aspects of ourselves in preparation for what comes next.

Healing requires:
✔️ Time ⏳
✔️ Patience 🌱
✔️ Perseverance 💪

4️⃣ Listening to the Core Self & Body Wisdom

One of the greatest skills I’ve developed over the years is listening to my core self. When combined with deep body awareness, intuition elevates to an entirely new level.

Inner listening is a natural gift we all have—but to truly hear, we must heal.

Most of the voices, beliefs, and thoughts we carry aren’t even ours. But how would we know that unless we paid attention to our inner world?

A Powerful Aha Moment ✨

During one of my trainings, the professor was teaching, and I had this realization:

You know that icky feeling when someone looks at you and scans your entire being—assessing you based on your clothes, demeanor, posture, and speech, deciding in an instant if you’re worth their time?

We do the same thing when we judge someone’s health at face value. Someone may look healthy but struggle with deep emotional wounds or invisible physical pain.

🌀 Health isn’t just physical—it’s an ever-changing process that includes emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.

As Dr. Bizkarra often says:

Truth in thinking, beauty in feeling, and goodness in doing indicate inner harmony.

And disease? It reveals the unconscious parts of us that need attention.

Tips for Deep Healing & Self-Discovery 🌿

  • Meditation, contemplation, and reflection are essential (this is my personal motto that I have embraced for my adult life – it keeps me grounded in the fact that we are always evolving).
    🧘‍♀️ Start with 1 minute, then build up to 5, 10, 15, and 30 minutes per day. Discipline is key!
  • Cultivate stillness.
    Just sitting with yourself and observing your subconscious mind without judgment is transformative.
  • Self-knowledge is an ongoing process.
    I’ve spent most of my life exploring my subconscious, but only recently have I truly embraced my body as an equal partner in this life journey.
  • Pain and suffering are messages.
    If you knew your pain was guiding you back to your soul’s purpose, what would you start doing differently today?
  • Let go of others’ expectations.
    Many of us hold onto emotional turmoil because we fear disappointing others. In a training with Dr. Siegel on neurobiology, I learned how integration plays a role in our self-perception. Could disease be pointing to the expectations we’re carrying that need to be released?
  • Beware of projections.
    Shadow work isn’t something we’re taught. It wasn’t passed down to me through my ancestral shamanic practices—we received many spiritual tools but little guidance for navigating this physical life.
    🔍 Reflect after crucial conversations. Ask yourself: Am I projecting my unhealed wounds onto others?

💡 Final Thought
Your body, mind, and spirit are in a constant dialogue. Are you listening? 🌿✨
