I know life can feel like a black hole trying to suck you in. You feel exhausted, defeated and unable to fight through another day. You want to crawl back into bed and forget about the world that is demanding something from you. I get it, babe! Things can seem really bad and you don’t see how you can make it any better.
Give yourself a big hug and kiss. Throw a little tantrum on the floor. Break something if you need to. Call into work. Cancel your plans. Cry your eyes out. Eat a big vat of ice cream.
OWN YOUR DARKNESS!
When shit feels bad then let it feel bad. Don’t talk yourself out of it and don’t guilt yourself for not feeling like sunshine, rainbows and a big cloud of glitter. It’s okay… you can’t lie to yourself about how you feel.
When you’re done getting out the angst… take a deep breath, put on something that feels sexy and remember this:
YOU ARE FUCKING POWERFUL!
I mean like really powerful. More powerful than you know. You are a walking mystical being filled with so much light and magic that you could blow the roof off the damn world. So don’t shy away from your darkness… and NEVER shy away from your LIGHT.
It’s no secret that things can be difficult. Life throws some big curve balls at you. But you choose how you will engage with the drama. All the negative, heavy, dark, dramatic shit you’re going through is like dealing with is very real and part of the excavation process to uncover your innate magic.
When I am feeling this way I realize I need to let it go… let the anger go, let the tears go and let the pain go… and by letting it go I mean going through the process of feeling it so that it can be released. Sometimes life is like a washing machine… you get soaked and then spun out… go through the process to get squeaky clean.
Excuse my cheesy analogy, but you get the point!
You choose how you are going to respond, react and engage with every single thing in your life.
Learning to let go also means learning to have boundaries.
Say no when you mean NO.
Say yes when you mean YES.
Use your damn voice… it’s the most powerful thing you can do. No one knows how you feel, what you need or want or what they should do for you if you don’t tell them. Communicate your boundaries loud and clear.
You might not become the most popular person… but the people who are in opposition with your truth, who oppose your wellness are not people you need in your life.
Guess what?
Every single person in your WHOLE life is a guest of honor in your world… use that power, baby!
So when you feel dark. When you feel angry. When you feel defeated. Use your VOICE.Scream a little. Then speak your truth. Don’t shy away from what you want, need or feel. Those are the most important things in your life… everything else is just filling in the space.
You’ve got to be a little crazy to survive. You’ve got to be audacious enough to show your truth to THRIVE.
If you need a little love, a shoulder to cry on and some real talk… I’m always here.
You might believe your a badass powerful light-beam babe… but I know you are!
