Dear Mystic Ali: How Do I Heal When I Feel Stuck Everywhere?

Dear Mystic Ali:
How Do I Heal When I Feel Stuck Everywhere?
Dear Mystic Ali,
I’m a single mom. I feel lost and hopeless trying to parent and provide for my kids. I suppress my feelings so much that I don’t feel them anymore—I’m numb. My partner tells me I never apologize, and I realized it’s true. No one admitted fault when I was growing up. Now, I don’t know how to authentically say “I’m sorry” without shutting down. I’m also so sensitive to criticism that even honest feedback feels crushing. On top of it all, I’m constantly battling my past, swimming in fear and trauma. I’m exhausted. Please, how do I heal?
— A Willing Warrior
Mystic Ali Responds
Beloved Warrior,
First, breathe. You are not broken—you are brave. The fact that you’ve written these words is proof of your willingness to rise. Healing begins when we dare to bring the unspeakable into the light, and you have done that today.
On Parenting Through Hopelessness
Being a single mother is one of the fiercest initiations a woman can walk. You are carrying both the provision and the nurturing, roles that were never meant to rest on one pair of shoulders. The hopelessness you feel is not weakness—it’s the body’s cry for support. Begin with micro-moments of restoration. Five minutes of breath while your children play. One whispered prayer in the shower. Nourishment before depletion. When you anchor yourself, even in tiny ways, you’ll find you parent not from exhaustion but from presence.
On Feeling Again After Numbness
Numbness is not the absence of feeling—it is feeling so much that your system shut down to protect you. Be gentle. Start small. Place your hand on your heart and ask, “What do you want me to know?” Journal a single sentence each day. Cry when tears rise, without judgment. Emotion is energy in motion; when you let it move, you come back to life.
On Apologies and Authentic Contrition
You are right—apology is more than “I’m sorry.” It is acknowledgment, humility, and a bridge back to connection. Because no one modeled this for you, it feels foreign. Practice by saying: “I see how my action affected you. That wasn’t my intention, but I take responsibility.” Contrition is not weakness—it is strength. Each authentic apology breaks the chain of silence you inherited.
On Receiving Criticism Without Collapse
Sensitivity to criticism often stems from old wounds where feedback equaled shame. Shift your perspective: feedback is not proof of your unworthiness, but an invitation to grow. The next time someone offers critique, pause and say, “Thank you for showing me something I couldn’t see before.” Then decide what’s useful and discard the rest. This transforms criticism into fuel instead of fire.
On Rerouting Fear and Trauma
The past is a strong storyteller, but you are the author of your next chapter. When fear thoughts rise, gently interrupt them with truth: “That was then, this is now. I am safe.” Trauma is not healed through force but through consistent, compassionate re-patterning. Replace rumination with grounding practices—breath, prayer, movement. Over time, the body learns it no longer needs to rehearse danger.
Final Blessing
Dear one, you are not treading water—you are building the strength to swim to shore. Healing is not about perfection; it’s about choosing, moment by moment, to return to yourself. You call yourself a willing warrior—and that is exactly who you are.
With love and truth,
Mystic Ali
