Babes!!

This post is something that I desperately needed when I was just a girl. I didn't learn this invaluable reality until I was in my early 40's.
I was taught from a VERY young age that emotions were either good or they were bad. In fact, I was taught that emotions either come from God or from Satan. For instance, "God does not give us anger or fear or frustration. Those come from the adversary." We should never have those emotions, I was taught. In my little-girl mind, I needed to avoid those emotions at ALL cost. Thus, my symbolic closet was formed and I began shoving all of my "bad" emotions into them immediately. Because I had these emotions, I went a step further - I (ME) I was bad. 😟

This cannot be further from the truth, Friends. Emotions are NOT good or bad; true or false; facts or myths... they are just emotions. All emotions have a purpose. "Negative" emotions can HELP us by acting as warning signals, alerting us to threats or issues that need attention, motivate us to take action and provide us with valuable information about our environment or relationships. They allow us to address problems and protect ourselves. Examples:
* Fear can signal danger
* Anger can indicate boundary violation
* Sadness can signal a need for social support
* Anxiety can trigger a fight or flight, helping us avoid immediate danger
* Frustration or disappointment can highlight areas where we need to make changes

Recognizing "negative" emotions helps us understand our own needs and our own boundaries (or our need for them)!!

Now, let's not get out of hand here!! While negative emotions are normal, healthy, and can be useful - it's important to manage them in a healthy manner and to not allow them to overwhelm us.🖤

If "negative" emotions are becoming overwhelming, seek therapy! There are lots of ways to help manage these and not allow them to dictate our lives! Friends, "positive" and "negative" emotions are both essential for us! They both have their purpose. You are NOT bad for having "negative" emotions. You are human!🤗

Babes!!

I have had the privilege of talking with a sweet friend who is really going through some things right now. The weight of issues on her shoulders right now is immense and I am grateful for my own trials that allow me to listen and sympathize with her.

As I listen, I offer some little things that helped me so much when I was positive that the weight of my trials would bury me. She feels emotionally "strongest" in the mornings... Mostly because she is really struggling to sleep at night. She has gotten herself into a good routine in the mornings that include going to the gym and driving to a special place to take pictures and enjoy the sun rising.☀️ This is a FANTASTIC way to start each day. She has discovered a hobby that she enjoys. By mid-afternoon, she is in a dark place. She just wants to go to sleep so that her mind won't wander and she won't feel the immense sadness, grief, fear, confusion, anger, loneliness that is there and is heavy.

With that knowledge, I offer the following advice:
1. Continue to move your body daily! Drink enough water, Eat the food that makes your body and mind feel good.
2. Do your quiet, mindless hobbies in the mornings when you feel stronger.
3. When your mind begins to wander and you begin to feel all of the VERY VALID emotions you are feeling, don't ignore those feelings! Welcome them in. Pull up a seat for them. Acknowledge them. THEN, go outside. Go for a walk outside. Get fresh air. Move your body. Get some sunlight (or UV rays of some kind). Take a shower or a bath. Water is a switch for our parasympathetic nervous system. Letting water run over us helps flip that switch!
4. Physical touch. When we are dealing with betrayal trauma, abandonment issues, loneliness, etc. physical touch can seem allusive, even impossible. But we need it. Ideas: ask a friend or family member for a hug. Literally go to a hair salon and simply ask for a hair wash. If you have the means, get a manicure or pedicure or massage.
5. At night, when you are struggling to sleep - guided meditation is amazing. I still take a bath and listen to guided meditation every single night to calm down from the day. Just go to YouTube and search, "guided meditations." There are tons of them on there. Some are short and some are longer.
6. Cry. Yell. Write. Write letters to the people who have hurt you, to the places that have hurt you, to the times that you were scared, etc. Burn them. Flush them down the toilet. Writing our feelings out helps to get them out of our brains and onto paper.
7. Therapy. Find a therapist that you have a good fit with and go to therapy!!!!

Keep going. YOU KEEP GOING.

Babes!
I played one of those silly social media games recently. I did it. I admit it. I was pulled in, line and sinker.
It was a square made up of, what I would assume were, hundreds of words. The "instructions" for this particular game tell you that the first four words you see are going to be your road map, so to speak, for 2025.
Fine! I totally played along.
Word one: PURPOSE
Word two: CREATION
Word three: LOVE
Word four: SELF-CARE

Well, okay. I'm all-in. Immediately, as I wrote down the words I saw, I began to tear up. Could there be four better words for ME than those four?! I dare say, "ABSOLUTELY NOT!"
I made this simple vision board with MY words on it.
These are the words that I pray on:
* What is my purpose? What would you have me create? Who needs my love and how do I love them better? I can't do any of it without self-care *

I invite you to steal these words and make them your own!😍 As I've thought about them daily, prayed about them daily, and really tried to absorb their meanings over the last few days... I've come to realize that these four words can create such a simple road map. And, I'm all-in!

XOXOXO

Babes!!
I have so much I'd like to share. I've been learning and discovering and growing. I know each of you has been doing the same!🖤
Remember that one time when I told you that it is OUR job to make us happy? It is no one else's job to make us happy. It is not our job to make anyone else happy. It's an inside job.
I find that to be so empowering. I find it to be such a relief! It's actually the best news ever, really.
I recently had someone ask me some questions:
- Well, what if the person or people I'm with make me unhappy?
My answer: Part of your happiness being your job is placing boundaries, surrounding yourself with people who are like-minded. If you are around people, living with someone, in a relationship of any kind with someone who you don't feel you can be happy around - it's your job to change things.
Burke is a safe place for me to live this truth. He is a safe place, a steady place to live in my infinite worth. We both take full responsibility for our own happiness.
If you are around people, in any relation, where you don't feel that way... change your situation. Don't try to change them. It's not possible. Nor is it your job. Just change your situation. It's up to YOU!

XOXOXO
