Here’s a way to remember to SELF-SOOTHE:

“I release my parents from the feeling that they have already failed me.

I release my children from the need to bring pride to me; that they may write their own ways according to their hearts, that whisper all the time in their ears.

I release my partner from the obligation to complete me. I do not lack anything,

I learn with all beings all the time. I thank my grandparents and forefathers who have gathered so that I can breathe life today.I release them from past failures and unfulfilled desires, aware that they have done their best to resolve their situations within the consciousness they had at that moment.

I honor you, I love you and I recognize you as innocent. I am transparent before your eyes, so you know that I do not hide or owe anything other than being true to myself and to my very existence, that walking with the wisdom of the heart, I am aware that I fulfill my life project, free from invisible and visible family loyalties that might disturb my Peace and Happiness, which were once my only responsibilities.

I renounce the role of savior, of being one who unites or fulfills the expectations of others. Learning through, and only through, LOVE, I bless my essence, my way of expressing, even though somebody may not understand me.

I understand myself, because I alone have lived and experienced my history/herstory; because I know myself, I know who I am, what I feel, what I do and why I do it.

I respect and approve of myself.

I honor the Divinity in me and in you. We are free." ~Authors Unknown #WeAreFree #ReclaimingMyTime #TheSelfCareMaven #Namaste #TurnYourMind #ChooseLove #CPTSDRecovery

ƸӜƷ …

My efforts now turn … From trying to outrun suffering, to accepting love, wherever…I can find it.

Stripped of causes and plans… And things to strive for, I have discovered everything I could need or ask for…Is right here…In flawed abundance!

We cannot eliminate hunger, but we can feed each other…

We cannot eliminate loneliness, But we can hold each other. We cannot eliminate pain, But we can live a life… Of compassion.

Ultimately, we are small, living things…awakened in the stream…, Not gods who carve out the river!

Like human fish, we are asked, to experience meaning, in the life that moves…through the gill of our heart.

There is nothing to do… and nowhere to go…Accepting this, we can do anything and go anywhere
