How strongly do you value yourself? – Huffington Post

We know we will not tolerate abuse, harm, or destruction. When fear surfaces in our lives, we honor who we are and respect our limits. When we know our worth, we are not constantly depending on external stimulation to prove or affirm ourselves.

No one can abuse or love us beyond the point of which we abuse or love ourselves.

When we loose sight of ourselves we act from a place of deep need for attention and recognition. Consequently, generating drama and chaos in our lives and the lives of those around us. This is the shadow side of fear- disconnection, falsehood, and pain. When we choose to embrace the light of fear we willingly accept an invitation to gain personal freedom.

In fear based thoughts, we have access to our story and we realize that the story we choose to tell is just that - a choice.

Get curious about your story What are the themes that continue to come forward? That is, what are the constant, "I can't, I should've, it will never work," stream of thoughts, ultimately causing further pain and suffering. We most commonly experience this pain and suffering as anxiety, depressive symptoms, low energy and disconnection.

Claim your power and make a shift What if I told you that as easily as it is to think and allow thoughts based in fear to germinate, it is just as easy to pivot and invest in thoughts around possibility and opportunity. The moment we decide to stand behind ourselves, to fully support our intention of wanting to feel good- we affirm our value and worth. Because the truth is: we are priceless and we are all destined for a beautiful life.

We all deserve to know how good we truly are, and we all deserve support, kindness, and respect for the simple reason that we exist. Heal any feelings of lack and your sun will shine brightly. Give more to yourself, committing to building yourself to fullness. Personal power can express itself in any situation and guides us through the maze of resistance and opposition placed on our path to help us grow and mature.

Feel into your personal empowerment and navigate the world in a balanced and considerate way. Take the time to remember who you are.

When we love and value ourselves, we are better able to respond to situations through love and compassion. It's ok to give ourselves permission to thrive, using all that we experience for opportunities of growth and expansion. It truly is ok to let the inner measuring stick go!

The way we view and hold ourselves becomes translated into every experience and exchange we have. True personal freedom and happiness starts within.
