I was having a meal with someone today and this is what was on the table. “𝓕𝓻𝓸𝓶 𝓫𝓻𝓸𝓴𝓮𝓷 𝓽𝓸 𝓫𝓮𝓪𝓾𝓽𝓲𝓯𝓾𝓵” . . This really struck a chord with me. Sometimes I suppress my feelings and emotions thinking it’s not a big deal, I will get past it but overtime it catapults into this monster that drags me down every waking moment, sometimes even in my dreams. It is SO important to express and share your feelings with your loved ones and especially at times of struggle because while sharing may not always solve our issues, it certainly lightens our heart and gives us the strength and power to face the situation. I will remind myself every time I am in a difficult place, how can I paint my crack with gold ✨ @wagamama_uk . . #shareandrepair #strength #power #resilience #positivity #motivation #keeplearningkeepgrowing #growthmindset #trustyourjourney #trustyourstruggle #journeyoflife #strongereveryday #kintsugi #wagamama_uk https://www.instagram.com/p/B84eu-SnnA6/?igshid=fqcmfqpxwxs9

I've been in a really dark spot recently, and it reminds me that no matter how positive, self loving and passionate we can be - there is a darkness too and it is also beautiful. Not hurting is easier, and to be honest I think I put feeling a lot of these feelings off for quite some time. But just like #ustrasana in yoga, it's important to open your chest, let it pour out, to be vulnerable, to feel wounded, to be raw, maybe unpleasant for a little while. This is how we grow, resisting the darkness only breeds stagnation. A lot of the darkness centered around feeling like I haven't done enough, like it's too late and that I've tried too hard, and accomplished too little. Too much? My point is, feel what you need to feel and don't apologize for it. THAT is how I feel in all honesty, and I'm not afraid to share it. Ps. When I look at this photo the amazing @rachaelleephoto took of me, I am reminded of my power. So that's good. 💪#livecleankitchen #livecleankitchenyoga #camelpose #honestthoughts #trustyourstruggle #painhasapurpose (at Westport, California)
