BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF




Be gentle with yourself. !
Always remember to be gentle with your mind, your body, and your soul as you take the steps necessary to move towards healing, recovery and the future in front of you.


You are doing the best you can, dont worry about taking gaint steps but rather push yourself with little steps in the right direction, and celebrate each victory along the way.


Your life does not have to completely revolve around your illness, disorders or addictions, take time for yourself to self soothe, to take a walk, to watch the sunrise or sunset, to drink some tea or listening to your favorite music- Do what you need to do to take care of yourself.

Don't  push yourself too far too quickly, take every inch of your journey bit by bit, moment by moment, and be mindful of every bit of the progress along the way, and of every success you are able to win along the course of the greater war, one which you are destined to win.

I would like to take a moment to say how thankful I am for the amazing support that I received on my last post. I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have had such a postive impact upon me and now I am ready to give back and continue offering words of support to you.

-All the love. and  Blessings.

Embrace Your Journey

Embrace  your  journey .  You are'nt given the journey by accident or by chance. This is YOUR journey. Not your friend's journey, not your family's journey, not the journey of the last person you dated or your father or your mother's journey This is 100% your journey,crafted specifically for you and its time to embrace it, validate and honor every bit of your journey, both what's behind you and what's ahead day by day. This journey is not mistake and it is not by chance that you are given this journey ; this is your journey, singular and irreplaceable, and you were meant to follow this path, learn and grow from every experience along the way, and fight through every battle while celebrating every victory , one step at a time.  This journey doesn't belong to those around you, only you can have ownership over this journey and only you are in charge of where this journey takes you and how it shapes the person you are becoming with every battle and step along...

Happiness is Here and Now !

A few ways to practice mindfulness- Choose one of your five senses and focus on it wholly. Perhaps you are slowing down to really taste your food,  observing the smell of many flowers in your garden, or watching the sunrise/set without allowing your mind to wander. Close your eyes (or fix your gaze on an non moving object) and bring your focus to your breath. Inhale and Exhale . Focus on the sensations in your body, and allow wandering thoughts to visit and pass on as you bring your focus back to your breath. If you find it helpful, you can also add a mantra to your breath, such as "Breathe in peace, Exhale chaos." or " breathe in 'I acknowledge' (whatever emotion is at the forefront of your mind), exhale 'I care for' (whatever emotion is on the forefront of your mind.) Run your hands under cold water or hold ice cubes until they melt and focus on the sensation of how it makes your hands feel. One should mindfully participate in an...

If You Are A Little Better Than You Were Yesterday Then That's Enough

Today if you are a little better than you were yesterday, then that's enough. Never believe that you must solve all of your problems at once, that you must be completely recover in a short time or that you are wrong of flawed for continuing to struggle- take small steps each day in the right direction, for the active effort of moving in the right direction is enough to create a gradual impact, one step at a time. Don't hold yourself to the standard that you must take giant steps in order to be successful, take your journey step by step, from going to the grocery by yourself to driving a car after not getting behind the wheel for a couple of years, or even calling a friend you have'nt talked to in a while, it is often the little steps that add up to a great amount in the end, and that ultimately have the most impact upon your journey in the right direction. Don't believe that you have failed or done something wrong if your journey is taking time. Every journey moves a...
