It’s ok to need.
It’s ok to ask.
It’s ok to receive.
Dammit.

Hard practice for those of us who attach our value to being givers. But so worth it. 🧡

"According to neuroscientist Evan Gordan, our brain is constantly scanning the world around us, asking: Is it safe or dangerous right now? With significant unresolved problems, it becomes nearly impossible to make the safe emotional connection necessary for a secure relationship.

As a result, we often perpetuate insecurity in our relationship because we don’t feel safe enough to express our deeper, more vulnerable emotions like sadness, hurt, loneliness, fear of abandonment or rejection, and shame of not being 'enough' or being 'too much.'

Instead, our partners see a different side of us. They see our anger, jealousy, resentment, and frustration. We hide our softer emotions behind a mask of the harder, more reactive emotions as our poor communication habits continue to wreak havoc on our emotional connection, making it harder for our partner to hear our longing for love and connection."

Learning how to process regrettable incidents makes it easier for us to reconnect and ultimately grow. Discover the steps to help you remove the mask of pain and process past hurtful events: https://bit.ly/2zXneCS

I love everything about this!

A question I often ask clients: "Is that your voice? Who is talking to you right now?"

That internal voice (the ego) is not your own— it was once someone else’s. Freedom comes from understanding you are not your thoughts, you experience thoughts. And, with consistent practice, you can change the way you respond to them thank you to for creating this 🙏
