I love you, dear one. I am always with you. No matter what, I will never stop loving you. No matter what, I will never leave you.

You are loveable just exactly as you are, in all your unfinished imperfectness.

Even though you may not feel it to be so right now, you are a growing radiant being doing the very best you can in this very moment.

It’s good to let yourself feel all your feelings, they will heal you.

It’s good to let yourself pay attention to what your feelings and your body are telling you...even and especially when they are contradicting your thoughts…your feelings and your body are always telling you your truth.

It’s good to let yourself go slowly.

It’s good to let yourself say, "no, this doesn’t feel right for me," …even when you can’t explain why.

It’s good to let yourself be really gentle with yourself.

It’s good to let yourself do what you need to do to take the very best care of yourself that you can…even when others may be disappointed with your choices.

It’s good to let yourself be kind and soft with yourself when you feel afraid…even when there "really " isn’t anything to be afraid of.

It’s good to let yourself cry when you feel sad or frustrated.

It’s good let yourself stomp and fuss when you feel angry or put-upon.

It’s good to let yourself stop and rest when you feel tired or confused.

It’s good to let yourself curl up under the covers when you feel afraid or overwhelmed.

It’s good to let yourself know and ask for what you want…even when you think you may not get it after all.

It’s good to let yourself be exactly how and where you are…even when you aren’t sure anyone else will like that!

It’s good to let yourself just be!

Ah...
Reading that makes me feel like I just stepped off a crowded bus on to the most beautiful secluded white sand beach...
Like taking a deep breath of clean cool Tahoe morning air...
So peaceful and relaxed.
Thank you for sharing that one. I needed it.
