emotional recovery
Bouncing back inside
Emotional recovery is the process of healing from psychological distress, trauma, or intense emotional experiences.
It implies a return toward equilibrium after grief, heartbreak, burnout, or crisis: Her emotional recovery took longer than the physical healing.
The phrase acknowledges that feelings require time and attention to mend, much like the body does.
