“When you are putting the pieces back together and starting to mend – it takes time to cure” – Miriam Grunhaus
Kintsugi is the art of mending broken pottery with gold. In this process, it makes each piece unique and actually much stronger.
In our lives, we often view our trauma and life challenges through the lens of shame. We don’t allow ourselves time to grief from one experience to the next and we don’t accept ourselves within our human experience.
Kintsugi can teach us the value of picking up the broken pieces and grieving what we were in order to make way for something even more magnificent.
