The Importance of Healing Before Relationships

Many relationships suffer because individuals do not bring their full, authentic selves to the table. Instead, they often present a version of themselves shaped by past traumas and negative experiences. Consequently, they may engage in relationships without fully trusting or opening up to their partners, leading to cycles of disappointment and emotional distance. Healing from past wounds is fundamental; taking time to address personal issues allows individuals to enter new relationships with a fresh perspective and the ability to love more freely.
