One of the things people would say to me
after my husband died was "time heals all wounds"
and this one really gets my goat "you're so pretty, you'll find someone else."
I have grown to learn, time does not heal all wounds.
It's okay to fall to your knees screaming and crying.
Itโs not okay to unpack and live there.
Every day that is gifted to us
is another opportunity to find gratitude
for the blessings we have in our lives and
an opportunity to learn and grow and evolve.
If you are not utilizing this golden opportunity for that, you're missing growth that could take you to the next level of your life, your career, your relationships, your journey, your art.
Here are a few things
you can do right now to ease
any stress you may be holding onto
and to help strengthen your immune system:
Slow deep breaths
Meditation
Gentle movement, Yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, etc.
Exercise
Write in your journal.
Eating healthy ~ fruits, vegetables, greens!
Do something in nature, work in your garden, take a walk,
walk around in your yard barefoot, turn your face to the sun.
Stop complaining.
Help someone less fortunate. You'll both feel better!
Action has magic, grace and power in it.
I intentionally share bits and pieces of my story.
It is my hope that there may be, even one, person
out there that reads my posts and finds comfort in
knowing they are not alone.
I was alone when my husband died.
I was knocked on my ass, the hardest rock bottom ever.
I lost everything.
Everything.
What I didn't lose was me.
I became more of me.
Full of gratitude.
Full of grace.
Full of light.
Full of love.
I've spent close to two decades helping other people
through their life transitions.
I had to learn to help my damn self.
And I've done that.
I picked myself up.
Dusted my damn self off.
And carried on.
Evolution.
Embodiment.
Embracing this glorious mess that is me.
Raw. Real. Kind. Funny. Loving. Lovable. Imperfect. Me.
Every next level of our life requires courage to do the
work, breaking through the limiting beliefs, to let go of
what no longer serves our highest & best.
The relationship you have with yourself is by far
the most important relationship you will ever have.
Confidence in yourself is found in faith with yourself.
The way to confidence is keeping the promises you
make to yourself without wavering.
For all the times you broke your own heart,
have forgiveness for yourself.
Find your ambition.
Walk the damn walk.
Walk with integrity and grit.
Walk with love.
Love all ways,
Tandy
