The Healing Mindset

Listen to yourself. Listen to what comes from within. That's important.

"...your life is taking off." Get ready. You've been doing to work to seal the past where it belongs. In the past. No longer focusing on what went wrong, why it went wrong, what could have been done differently, etc.

Life has a way of convincing us that things need to be overly challenging or hectic for them to be worth it. Or, that you must suffer immensely all the time to feel like progress is being made. This couldn't be further from the truth. If you've chosen a simpler and more laid-back route for yourself that works for you, allow that to be what it is.

Don't allow someone else's insecurities concerning your desired goals, and your path to get there, to cloud your own confidence in your ability to move ahead if your journey happens to look different from what they "think" it should look like.

They don't know your why. They don't know your motivation and your drive. Even if you tried to explain it to them, they wouldn't get it. That's okay.

An undertone that I have picked up on lately is just this. The growth that we are doing is happening in the background and surprises us when we least expect it. We may notice that we're calmer in a situation that used to give us great anxiety. Speaking to people may become easier. You may notice you desire to be more disciplined without forcing yourself.

Betrayal is part of life. It's easy to brush it off. "Oh, I didn't really care that much anyway..."

I get it.

It can be easy to bury the nonsense that they brought into your life through their betrayal. Your mind and body remember, though.

Your brain is always monitoring for you. That feeling of something not being right? Yep, that's your brain working behind the scenes.

If you're with individuals who continue to hurt you through micro-betrayals, do what you need to do to protect yourself. Your brain is taking note and you're entering a level of defense mode whether you realize it or not. You deserve more than to subject yourself to that.

Welcome to August.

You've worked on getting out of your own way. Good job.

Now, growing to your full potential is what you owe it to yourself to do. No holding back.

You've learned the skills needed to maintain your centeredness and clarity of mind. Peace.

Stress can be a major factor in keeping us frozen even if we have all the external support that we need.

Stray not from your purpose.

It's very easy for the negative traits to keep hold in our lives. More often than not, they're easy to hang on to. They usually don't require much of us to maintain.

A common theme I have been seeing recently is reaping the benefits of your past actions and investments.

Daily intentional action that leads to hidden growth and a positive impact in the future.

Whether for yourself or for others.

The seeds you planted then are allowing you to continue planting new seeds that will further assist you in building upon the foundation that you have established.

It's easy to feel like you missed out while you were busy planting those seeds. Missed opportunities. Missed connections.

Though it can be difficult to believe, if you had gotten those things back then, they would have taken you off your path. You wouldn't have had the time to build the assurances that you are currently relying on to propel you further.

It may be hard to believe, but you have arrived to some extent. Remember the days when you were trying to put together the life that you have now. You never thought you would make it, right?

But as you continued doing the small tasks daily to get you here, the life you were working toward built up around you without you even realizing it. All of a sudden, you were living it.
