Inspired by the realization that the pain I suppressed in my past reappears today and trying a different way of dealing with it.

Written during a time of great frustration with my body and reminded of the importance of acceptance, appreciation and self-care.

A reflection on following Life’s lead and the necessity to be aware at all times.

 Imagining the world’s information being what feeds our curious minds. Comparing eating to learning, a different  sustenance that we require.

Thinking about being a quiet, consistent person and reflecting on why it’s okay to be as we are despite what we encounter.

 A reflection on the loss of a constant role and the discovery experienced when embracing change.

A reflection after realizing that I made life complicated by accommodating others while trying to be myself. There is no pleasing others in self-care.

Thinking about the voice I’ve listened to my whole life and hearing how others want to but aren’t sure how to. I believe it's the voice that helped me to survive and encourage others to work with it daily to embrace who they are.

 Inspired by feeling ghosted and reflecting on how being honest despite disappointing others is a form of self-care.

PA reflection on why it’s important to know when we’re ready for help before accepting it.
