Feelings & Forgiveness
Helpful tools to get you through these turbulent times
Whether you are experiencing a lot of activity in and around your life and/or are directly connected with any of the external events happening the world, you might feel as if you’re approaching or are in the midst of a tsunami of varying degrees. Or maybe you just feel “off.”
Perhaps there are lots of feelings surfacing. Maybe some old stuff you thought you had resolved needs one last sweeping out. Or old patterns and behaviors that really have to go might be popping up so you can give them the final heave-ho (with compassion, knowing that they likely served you at some point). As I remind all my clients, detoxing never feeeeels good in the moment, but you will always feel better after!
Whatever it is, know that it’s saying “hello” (probably not in the most comfortable/convenient way!) in order to be released. And trust that whatever is changing is something that needs to be changed and is for your highest good.
The main thing is that we do our best to be as gentle, patient and compassionate with ourselves as possible — and forgiving of ourselves. And give others the benefit of the doubt because they too are dealing with their stuff, but perhaps with less awareness …
The theme of forgiveness in general is especially helpful at this time, keeping in mind that forgiveness of yourself or others doesn’t condone anything, it is simply about letting things go so they don’t have a hold on or take up space in you any longer.
If you need a little help weathering this storm or, as this reader says, just need “a reminder to know how amazing you are,” check out my new book Say It To Make It: Affirmations to Empower the Heart, Mind, Spirit and Soul, and purchase it on Amazon here. If you already have one — THANK YOU! Please consider writing a review and/or posting about the book on social media with the hashtag #sayittomakeit, and scroll down to see what others are saying!
