I can’t make this s**t up 😂
So I’m looking for my journal and can’t find it for about 10 min (even though as a Mom, I am known to be the expert finder of all things🤔🧐)…until finally I say out loud; “Journal, I know you’re here, I’d really like to write something down. Please come back to me!” 😂🤞Low and behold I walk back into my room ONE last time and lift a towel on my bed and the see my journal there🤦♀️.
So I’m back in the kitchen to write an affirmation about Trust, because I’m listening to Brene Brown’s podcast ‘The Anatomy of Trust’. (It’s a public holiday today in Cayman but even if it wasn’t….this was my most important “work” for today!
I proceed to look for a pen where I’m standing because there is always one floating around. (Except for today🤪)….as I’m about to walk the 20 ft where I know there are, I decide to throw away my tea bag along the way (efficiency is a core value of mine 🤩).
I automatically pull the tab off to save for my mindfulness message’s collection (as you do😂)….and it says this.
“TRUST CREATES PEACE”
🤯💥
Let’s just say…God is good. 🙏 So of course I taped it to my journal and sat down to reflect and share this moment.
The more I lean in, the more I can feel Spirit around me, helping me, nudging me. 💫
But the journey isn’t always easy which is why I take my job of Healing myself very seriously!
It takes;
Commitment to your Self (like that of what a marriage is meant to be.)
Dedication to Self (like the kind you give to your boss or you kids…that makes you stay the course even when you don’t want to or physically feel bad!)
It takes a deep Love for yourself (like a Mother’s love for her child, or like the Love you would want to feel from your life partner.)
It’s sooo easy to share the fun and pretty parts of our life. But the ugly ones exist for EVERYONE….You are not alone. 🤗
Personally, I lean on tools, habits and human connections that help me align to my true essence. That make me feel grounded and calm. And safe to be completely Me.
Ultimately I’m no longer looking for a “How To Guide”… Instead I’m seeking the courage to embrace my Truth, every single day, in every way….and to have Faith that as long as I listen, stay present and try my best…that I will always be supported by a Divine energy that we all know is there where we fully comprehend it or not. 💫
The Podcast link that inspired this post and my “theme” surrounding today’s healing work is below in case you wanna have a listen!
I have no regrets in life, but if I could do my Mothering journey all over again, the only thing I would change is Trust myself even more and not shy away from my Truth…even when it hurts or is uncomfy.
Today I am filling up our own marble jar. (Reference relates to the post, so have a listen if you want in on it😝)
