Healing from childhood trauma requires survivors to hold the conviction we deserved better, that we were "enough." There's no room for self-cruelty, not anymore.
Our old survival patterns will try to seduce us otherwise, but self-compassion & patience are non-negotiable tools for recovery.

Sometimes it’s hard to see that you’re enough, just like you are.
Remember, just taking care of yourself & pushing through chaos is progress.
You are enough.
Take a deep breath in & slowly exhale.

NEW: Jeffrey Epstein said in emails that he had been advising the Russian government on how to deal with Donald Trump, one of several cases in which he wielded his connections to try to influence the course of foreign affairs. w @nahaltoosi

There isn’t a soul on this planet who wouldn’t benefit from learning about themselves and there isn’t a soul on this planet who knows all they need to know already. Give yourself the gift of therapy because you deserve it.

Find that space and take it, being born entitles us to it, regardless of the messaging we received way back when, and our Wisest Selves know this.

Imagine being off the anxiety hamster wheel that prevents you from moving forward. Imagine hopping off and walking straight forward into an exciting space. What does that space look like? Isn’t this a better use of our imaginations than to use them on things that are very unlikely to happen?

Protestors, Take Care of Yourself
Dear everyone attending a #NoKings Protest in a Frog (or equivalent) costume:
I shouldn't need to tell you, but it will get a little warm in there.
If you need help, you need water, or anything, make sure to touch base with your Protest organizers EARLY ON for any assistance you might need.

I can love you with all my being, be angry at you, and realize that anger has no impact on how much I love you. I can then choose to address my anger towards you with love and maybe then, you will more easily hear it. It is hard, and it is the quicker way to feeling seen in anger.

Going through healing from trauma or abuse doesn't feel good. It's not pleasant. Confusion, doubt, even fear are among the many feelings.
Why do it? You deserve a life free from the fallout of trauma. You deserve to be free. Keep going.

We all need some sort of activation to alert us to what needs healing, without it, the wounds stay hidden - making it really easy to justify patterns that don’t serve us and boundaries that cage us.
