what we tell ourselves

words have power.

for me, words echo long after they have been received, they send shockwaves through my emotions and pick at my heartstrings. words can be used to reassure, soothe and spark revelation... here are some words that have given direction and insight...

during a tough period of life recently, i sort support from a confidant and we would speak weekly. we often ended our times together with wisdom that i could take away for myself, from myself. these were powerful statements that i could remember and use as reassurance.

it's far more important to speak rich, uplifting words to yourself; using them to fight the urge to beat yourself up.

these are some of my words...

the best has yet to come.

you are on a journey.

you are doing good.

you are brave.

it isn't finished.

it is assured you will add broken pieces to the picture but it is beautiful.

you're being so brave.

look for solid ground.

small steps forward.

you are not fake.

help is near.

remember to breathe.

what words do you tell yourself? what echoes in your head?
