“All that is not said is transmitted.” – Psychiatrist Nassan N. Munyandamutsa

Take a moment to let that sink in.

When we avoid confronting our pain, it doesn’t just disappear it finds other ways to show up in our lives and the lives of those around us 😢. That’s why it’s so important to press into the uncomfortable, to journey into the unknown twists and turns of healing.

Healing isn’t easy, but it’s worth it. It starts with small, brave steps:
💉Put down the drugs and alcohol.
💔Release the toxic relationships that hold you back.
🙏🏼Look your pain straight in the eyes and proclaim, “I choose a legacy of peace and I will not give up!”

Here are practical ways to embrace your healing journey:
❤️Practice self-compassion. You don’t have to have it all figured out right away. Be kind to yourself as you take one step at a time.
❤️Find healthy outlets. Journaling, art, or even taking walks in nature can help you process emotions in a safe and constructive way.
❤️Connect with others. Surround yourself with people who uplift and support your healing journey.
❤️Seek professional help. A therapist, counselor, and life coach can provide the tools and guidance to help you uncover and release what you’ve been carrying and move forward.

You are stronger than the pain, and peace is on the other side of your courage. Start today your future self will thank you. 💛

With Love,
