This is how you lose yourself

You start saying "it's okay"when it's not.

You start laughing off hurtful comments.

You start shrinking so you won't be "too much."

All because somewhere along the way, you learned that being loved meant being less.

You're allowed to unlearn that ❤️

I can support you to find yourself again- and love and respect yourself too.

It’s not your fault- powerful words every traumatised person needs to hear, understand and more importantly believe ❤️

In this scene, the therapist (Robin Williams) enables the client (Matt Damon) to confront and release deep-seated emotions related to his childhood abuse. This emotional release is a crucial step in his healing journey, allowing him to process and begin to resolve his emotional pain.

If this is you, it is possible you haven’t had this kind of deep visceral cry (which, by the way, is a must for resolving childhood wounds) because your system is still in massive protection mode.

Emotional release plays a significant role in healing, particularly for individuals who have experienced trauma or suppressed emotions.
When we release pent-up emotions, it can lead to several benefits, including:

• Reduced stress and anxiety:
Releasing stored emotions can help calm the nervous system and decrease feelings of overwhelm.

• Improved emotional regulation: By processing and releasing emotions, individuals can better manage their emotional responses and develop greater emotional resilience.

• Increased self-awareness:
Emotional release can help individuals gain insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, allowing for greater self-understanding

• Enhanced physical well-being:
Stored emotions can manifest physically; releasing them may alleviate symptoms like pain, tension, or fatigue.

• Greater sense of liberation:
Emotional release can lead to a sense of freedom and
empowerment, allowing individuals to move forward and live more authentically.

Delicious healthy lunch today
Creamy Avocado & White Bean Wrap ( I used high protein, high fiber lower carb wraps)

🧠 Mental Health Benefits of Cannellini Beans
- 🧬 Neurotransmitter Support: Cannellini beans are rich in folate, iron, and B vitamins, all essential for the production of serotonin, dopamine, and other mood-regulating neurotransmitters.
- 🧘 Mood Stability via Blood Sugar: Their slow-digesting carbs help prevent the blood sugar crashes that can trigger irritability or anxiety.
- 🧠 Cognitive Clarity: Iron supports oxygen delivery to the brain, while magnesium and zinc contribute to memory, focus, and emotional regulation.
- 🌿 Gut-Brain Connection: Their fibre feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which in turn produce short-chain fatty acids that influence brain health and mood.

🏋️‍♀️ Physical Health Benefits of Cannellini Beans

❤️ Cardiovascular Support - Rich in soluble fibre, they help lower LDL cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease.
💪 High-Quality Plant Protein - With ~17g of protein per cup, they support muscle repair and satiety, making them ideal for plant-based diets.
🌾 Digestive Health - Their fibre content (11g per cup) promotes regularity and supports a healthy gut microbiome.
🔋 Sustained Energy - Complex carbs and iron help maintain steady energy and prevent fatigue.
🩸 Blood Sugar Regulation - Low glycemic index and fibre help stabilise blood sugar, beneficial for managing diabetes.
🛡️ Antioxidant-Rich - Contain flavonoids and polyphenols that combat oxidative stress and inflammation.

White beans mashed with ripe avocado and blended with sharp Cheddar and onion makes an incredibly rich, flavorful filling for this wrap.

HERE'S A THOUGHT:
What if all those small pleasures you feel guilty about (afternoon naps, spontaneous walks, staring out windows, playful conversations) aren't life's distractions but life itself?
What if efficiency and productivity are actually the interruptions in our lives?
The good news? You're allowed to flip this equation back anytime you choose.
Today seems like a particularly excellent day to start 🤔💭

Change will blow through your life no matter what.
You can build a wall and stand still, or build a windmill and move forward.

The choice is yours 😊💨
