Allow softness, stability, beauty, peace, wealth, support, rest, and mutuality to exist in your life without feeling like you have to earn them through suffering first. You don't.
Control is the quiet addiction nobody warns you about.
No smell. No trace.

Power over outcomes.
Power over people.
Power over perception.
And like any drug…
the more you get, the more you think you need.
Until you don’t even recognize yourself without it.

One of the best things I ever did was disappear to heal. Sometimes we feel obligated to fulfill the needs of everyone else at our own detriment, while our nervous system is screaming for attention. I listened. I’m not sure just how bad it would have been if I hadn’t.
You don’t attract what you want, you attract what you are. So when you build something up on the inside, you are designed to attract that.
Don’t like what you are attracting?
Change your inside...
