I’m human. When you cut me, I will bleed.

This journey that life is taking me on. It’s a road i would have never traveled on if it were up to me.... but- it’s not.

The world we live in now, 2020- there is so much hate. Too much. Even toward ourselves...especially towards ourselves. I had to embark on this journey once traveled before, but this time I had to re learn how to talk nicer to myself. This time, I’m more accepting of my negative emotions that come up. When I’m super panicky, I know my mantra and i do some EMDR tapping on the side of my knees.

Like yesterday, for example, I was mid panic attack at the Doctors offIce while talking to the nurse at first. She left. As I waited for the Dr, I sat there tapped my knees and told myself “I can be calm. I am not in danger, I am safe. I am just at the doctors office.” With deep breathing and imagining my “safe place”. It helped. When the doctor walked in, it was like I was completely different person...

We all have to learn to cope in our own little ways. However they work for us, it doesn’t matter the process, as long as its healthy and works for you.

I am feeling stronger, lately. Not so broken. And I think it’s because I am being more mindful when negative emotions come, and not pushing them away or trying to distract myself. Let yourself feel it. Notice where it affects your body. Ask it what purpose it serves.

You are human, but you are also magic.🔮💕✨

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and journey. I have recently just learned about tapping! I am excited to have a new tool, the more tools I have the better I think.
