Choosing Deep Self-Care

This morning, life felt hard. I have secretly been carrying an overbearing sense of overwhelm. I decided to do things differently this morning. Rather than get straight into tasks, I chose to deeply care for myself. I followed my heart, and her intuition.

I realized my inner child needed gentle deep love. She was carrying a load that was not meant for her. She was trying to be everything. Through the use of movement, song, journaling and meditation I was able to reach my inner child.

She was caught between two impossible choices: choose yourself and face rejection; or choose others and face consumption. I was able to reveal to her another choice: choose self-love and discover deep life-giving sustenance. I was able to reassure my inner child, that my adult-self knew how to care for her. That she didn’t need to take the load.

That deep life-giving sustenance soaked in. Became tangible. Reassuring. I AM RESILIENT. I AM STRONG. I ALLOW THE JOURNEY. I WILL FIND MY WAY.

You are also worthy of this gift. YOU ARE RESILIENT. YOU ARE STRONG. YOU CAN ALLOW THE JOURNEY. YOU WILL FIND YOUR WAY.

When was the last time you chose self-care? What do you need to make it happen?
