What it is …

“Its about knowing when it is time to lay something to rest.
Its about understanding what no longer serves you (or, perhaps, what never even did) and finding a new way instead.
Its in ignoring the lure to remain a victim and taking a look at what you can do instead of remaining stuck in fear and blame.
Its in surrounding yourself with people and activities that bring you to your best, and keep you from collapsing within and fading away.
Its in having enough integrity to care for yourself in the best way possible and ditching that ridiculous “sacrificing self for others” mindset. What good are you to anyone if you have just drained your life force?
Its about remembering the times you were the most happy, the most content, the most at peace, and finding the right recipe for your soul. Its allowing yourself time and permission to enjoy those things that spark your heart.
Its in being open to experiences you never dreamed of, and allowing yourself the freedom to have an adventure no matter how small it may seem.
Its in giving yourself a flipping break for once, and putting a muzzle on the voices in your head that try to make you believe you suck, or are not capable, or that you always fail, or aren’t worth it… (to hell with those lies).
Its about asking for help.
Its about learning to receive.
Its about healing your life.

Its possible. It really is.”
