THX Episode 40 - When Holidays Hurt: A THX Reflection on Healing, Tradition, and Self-Compassion

Read post here

Summary:
Not all holy days feel holy. This piece holds space for those navigating grief, trauma, or complex feelings during holidays like Easter. Through the THX frameworks, it gently reframes pain through the lens of emotional utility, micro-moments of agency, and small steps toward healing.

Key Takeaways:

  • Painful traditions can expose losses in security, access, and emotion evoked.

  • Even one act of self-kindness can activate PERMAH—flourishing doesn't require perfection.

  • Emotional survival is a form of skill and goodness worthy of admiration.

Listen to this if:

  • You're grieving, processing trauma, or feeling alone this season.

  • Traditional celebrations feel triggering or inaccessible.

  • You need a permission slip to do what’s best for your healing.
