Honor yourself today.
Love yourself completely.
Know deep within your being that you are enough and worthy just as you are; an extraordinary human being. ❤️

(There comes a point in life where you just want better for yourself. A better life, better people, better energies, better routine, better health.-unknown)

Another day

Accept that not everyone likes you. Do you like everybody? The people who are right for you will like you.

Accept that not everyone likes you. Do you like everybody? The people who are right for you will like you.

When I was young I used to worry about other people not liking me.

Years later my first therapist Joyce, (I’ll never forget her she changed my life) asked me,

“Barb, do you like everyone?” I said no. She replied, “Then why are you worried about everyone liking you? That’s impossible!”

It was the biggest freedom to finally understand that there’s nothing wrong with you just because someone doesn’t like you.

Trying to make everyone happy is impossible.

What really matters is whether or not you like yourself.

Focus your energy there, and never apologize for being you.💖

Gentle reminder ✨

When people are disrespectful, unkind, harmful, and mean to others remember it’s never about you and it’s always a reflection of what’s happening inside of them, and their perception of you and life.

When someone is mean it’s likely a sign that they’re not happy with themselves deep within, so they need to perceive something wrong with the other person to make themselves feel better. 🖤

(Sometimes you need to stop looking for clarification or closure, and realize that they did what they did and meant it.-unknown)

"You are worth everything to me." - God

True

The Buddhists say, if you meet somebody and your heart pounds, your hands shake, your knees go weak, that's not the one. When you meet your 'soul mate' you'll feel calm. No anxiety, no agitation. // Monica Drake

(Once you start loving yourself, people will no longer look good to you unless they are good for you.-David Richo)

Amen
08/28/2023

Amen

This present moment is all we truly have. It's in this moment that we can make choices and take actions that are in alignment with who we are and what we want in life.

Trust and accept yourself completely.
You are whole. You are enough.
You are complete, You are worthy.
You already have everything you need within you to succeed and be happy.💛

(You have this one life. How do you want to spend it? Apologizing? Regretting? Questioning? Hating yourself? Dieting? Running after people who don’t see you? Be brave. Believe in yourself. Do what feels good. Take risks. You have this one life. Make yourself proud.-Beardsley Jones)

When people show you who they are believe them, said the great Maya Angelou.

We cannot change others we can only change our response to them.
So trust your intuition and their actions, stop living your life with unrealistic expectations, wish them well, and place your attention and energy on your one precious life. 🖤

(Their effort will show you the position they want in your life. Not their words, promises, or intentions… Their effort.-)

Setting healthy, clear boundaries are not for other people they are for your safety, guarding your inner peace, sanity, health, and happiness.

Remember it is not a punishment for others. They may feel that it is so it’s natural for them to miss the “old” you.

So remember if someone is not happy with how you choose to live your life, it is a sure sign that you need to take good care of yourself, continue reinforcing your boundaries, don't take anything they do or say personally (because it's about their perception).

Not everyone is meant to be in our lives to the end so when someone brings pain, suffering, and disrespect to your life, “adjust your life to their absence” and wish them well from afar. ❤️

(If it requires you to betray your boundaries, it’s not for you.-)

08/28/2023

Trust your journey. Every detour and redirection can help you become the person you need to be to achieve your goals ✨

(Please forgive yourself for not knowing better at the time. Forgive yourself for giving away your power. Forgive yourself for past behaviors. Forgive yourself for the survival patterns and traits you picked up while enduring trauma. Forgive yourself for being who you needed to be.-Audrey Kitching)

You are brave
08/28/2023

You are brave

You are incredibly courageous when you make the decision to heal from your suffering.

Healing is not linear.

Healing does not happen overnight.
Healing takes patience, lots of bravery, and the willingness to look at everything that has caused the pain and little by little begin to let it flow through your body.

This is not at all easy my loves, but what a worthwhile journey this is.

You will come out the other side stronger, wiser, and free from the tyranny of another person's trauma inflicted upon you.

You take your life back.
This is the hardest thing you will ever do so love, honor, and accept yourself completely and be kind to yourself.

Healing is a brave accomplishment. 💕

Remember the way other people treat you is a statement about them, not you.

You are the only one who can decide what you will allow to be a part of your life.❤️

(Sometimes the disrespect is all the closure you need.-source unknown)
