‘It’s imperative to our healing journey that we allow ourselves to be truly seen by first seeing ourselves and loving ourselves.’– Gabrielle Bernstein

‘When we begin the process of melting away our protection mechanisms and safely melting what lives beneath them, that’s when we can truly heal.’

‘We all hold down years of grief, mask it with rage, anesthetize it with addiction, and silence it.’

‘To undo the past, we must become compassionate toward our present selves.’

‘The past can be remedied by reparenting yourself in the present.’

‘We often look for safety outside ourselves, but what we really need is newfound security that comes from within ourselves and divine guidance.’

‘Sometimes what we think we need to heal for others is exactly the healing we need for ourselves.’

‘Getting to know, love, and proatively care for your parts can be the most loving relationship of your life.’

‘It’s faith that got me out of the darkness, and it’s faith that keeps me in the light.’

‘A powerful way to shift the shame from the past is to speak your truth in the present.’

‘Telling the truth required a lot of self-compassion. Compassion is the antidote to shame.’

‘Giving voice to your shame is the first step to releasing its grip.’

‘Self-compassion can melt away shame.’

‘When we bring our shadows to the light, then they can be healed.’

‘You cannot heal what you’re unwilling to see.’

‘If you can discover where shame may be hiding, then you have the opportunity to face it and move past it, rather than unconsciously letting it rule your life.’

‘When past traumatic events are unresolved emotionally, the body takes the heat.’

‘Sometimes it’s the darkest moments that offer us the deepest spiritual connection.’

‘When we push down our memories and unresolved traumas, we are never free from them. Instead, we relive them on a daily basis.’

‘The feelings that make us most uncomfortable reveal to us what we need to heal.’

You Will Get There

Life is a process. If you don’t give up on yourself, you will get there. If you do not forget why you are doing what you are doing, you will get there.

If you do not beat yourself down, you will get there. No matter what you are doing, where you are going, if you do not give up, you will get there.

Nothing is easy, but if you do not give up, you will get there. If you don’t want to disappoint yourself, you must keep going,

keep praying, keep working, and keep believing.

Keep pushing yourself forward. If you believe in what you are doing, and if you are doing it for the right reason, for you, not for others, you will one day get there.

You will get there. You will get there if you do not give up on yourself. You will get there if you do not forget about your dreams. Remember, just because something is hard doesn’t mean it can’t be done.

It can be done. To know, you must try. If you do not try, you will not know how far you can really go. And you will never know how strong you are. Why not try?
