WE CREATE OUR REALITY
Through my own (still continuing) journey of recovery from chronic illness and in helping many others to do the same, there is one thing I know to be true.
We create our reality.
If you believe you can, or you believe you can’t - you’re right either way.
It’s more than valid to feel like recovery is hard, even awful and damn near impossible some days. To be met with a body that’s constantly unwell and depleted is a challenge like nothing I’ve never experienced before in my life. I witness this in clients too - when you’re in the thick of healing, there are multiple moments where slipping back into old routines and habits is so appealing. It’s comfortable and familiar, even if detrimental for our health long term and a contributor for why we are sick in the first place.
In times of turbulence, I remember these words from Eleanor Roosevelt - in fact, I have it pinned on my wardrobe door as a friendly reminder daily. You MUST do the things you think you cannot do, consistently and with deliberate intention to create the health and well-being you desire. Across all areas of your experience - mental, physical, spiritual.
Don’t set the bar low for what you can achieve for your recovery - you ARE capable of changing your morning routine, exercising daily, cleansing, meditating, giving up caffeine, going to bed earlier, establishing boundaries in your relationships etc. Tackle those things you believe are out of your reach, because that’s where the very necessary work is. Let me put it this way, you can’t unlock new doors with old keys. Gather your team (I’m always here if you need me) and go get after it ✌🏻. One day at a time, bit by bit.
Sending you so much strength always,
T 🙏🏻🤍
