Self love

There will always be someone ready to give you an opinion, and it's fine... But it happen too often that we get dragged by ideas that do not represent ourself; close people like my parents, used to tell me that i should make more friends, find a serious partner, do this, do that... All these thoughts had blurred my mind, and i just recently started to pull my self out of a box where i was blocked!

You have the right to find your idea of happiness, and nobody can understand your feelings better than you do, nobody can judge you about what you do to be happy untill you respect who's around you.

Trying to follow expectations (in particoular the expectation of someone else) may provoke us anxiety, stress and even depression... So please, be who you want to be, and not who others want you to be; please, respect the ideas of who thinks differently, but at the same time do not put your soul into their hands, you are the owner of your life, you are you.

May a light shine your world 😊

Peace ☮️

singing for emotional dysregulation and BPD

I’ve had two weeks off work due to stress and the thought of returning tomorrow gives rise to some anxiety. there is a vast compassionate field of boundless love that is big enough to hold this. today I will sing along to a guided chanting meditation by Mary benefiel to shift my energy and take a very gentle swim, maybe have a gerson coffee enema as my liver feels inflamed and then take a nap. like a shaman on a trip, I will watch all phenomena with relaxed curious detachment, whilst giving love and tender patient compassion to myself, my family and my dog. #Acceptance #buddism #metta
