Reflective Questions for Healing

A Gentle Self-Inquiry Questionnaire

If these reflections stir something in you, take your time. Breathe. Let your nervous system feel safe. There are no right or wrong answers — only honesty and compassion.


✨ Memory, Meaning & Closure

  • Was there a last meeting that still haunts me?
  • What do I wish I’d said to someone I never saw again?
  • Is there a goodbye that still feels unfinished?
  • Are there words I’ve carried silently that deserve to be expressed?
  • What memory still holds emotional weight for me — and why?
  • What unresolved emotion is asking for my attention?

🌱 Regret, Forgiveness & Self-Compassion

  • What do I blame myself for that deserves gentler understanding?
  • If I knew then what I know now, what would I do differently?
  • Can I forgive myself for what I didn’t yet know?
  • What part of my story still needs compassion rather than judgment?
  • What would I say to a dear friend who had lived my experience?

🤍 Connection, Repair & Reaching Out

  • Is there someone I could reach out to before it’s too late?
  • Is there someone who may still be waiting to hear from me?
  • What stops me from reconnecting — fear, pride, pain, uncertainty?
  • What would healing communication look like for me?
  • Is reconnection safe, nourishing, and aligned with my wellbeing?

🌊 Presence, Impermanence & Awareness

  • How would I treat people differently if I assumed each goodbye might be the last?
  • How would I show love more openly?
  • What small kindness could I offer more often?
  • How can I be more present in ordinary moments?
  • What do I take for granted that deserves deeper gratitude?

🕊 Legacy, Love & How We Are Remembered

  • What would I want someone’s last memory of me to be?
  • What emotional imprint do I want to leave on others?
  • When people think of me, how do I hope they feel?
  • What values do I want my life to quietly communicate?
  • What does a life well-loved mean to me?

🌿 Healing, Growth & Emotional Integration

  • What is asking to be healed inside me right now?
  • What emotion have I avoided that deserves space?
  • What truth am I becoming ready to face?
  • What would emotional freedom feel like in my body?
  • What would healing look like at this stage of my life?

🌟 Living More Fully

  • If fear were not guiding my choices, what would I do differently?
  • What would I say more often if I were brave?
  • Where do I long to feel more alive?
  • What brings me peace — and how can I invite more of it?
  • How can I honour both my past and my becoming?

Closing Reflection

Take a moment to breathe.
Place a hand on your heart.
Let kindness be the answer to every question.

Healing happens in gentleness, not force. 💛
