february was so beautifully heavy. filled with big wins, small wins, high highs and low lows. there are moments from this past month that I will carry in my heart for the rest of this lifetime. february 2021 will forever hold the defining moment in my relationship to my body. I chose to show up in a way I never had before. I chose to share my journey. my pain. my grief. my triumph. my glory.
I found power. I found healing. I found connection — because I chose it. because I surrendered. because I was present. undeniably present. for each moment of fear & each moment of joy. I didn’t run — I stood firm. I let my emotions lead me to the next step. to show me what needed love, attention, compassion.
& today, the first day of the third month of the year I can say that I am without a doubt — content.
I am happy. I am grateful. I am at peace. I know a new month brings with it the contrast. the highs the lows the dark the light. && this does not scare me anymore. in fact, it makes me feel even more at peace — because I am finally releasing the fear of fear.
I KNOW I will cry again. most likely every day.
I KNOW I will slip out of alignment here & there.
I KNOW I will have moments of insecurity.
I KNOW I will lack the motivation to pursue my goals.
I KNOW it will be hard at times — but I also know that this means I will be handed opportunities.
to reflect. to go within. to shed. to break. to rebuild. to emerge — new. stronger. wiser. brighter.
so,
my invitation to you today: when setting your monthly intentions, make room for growth. for compassion. for rest. because in my opinion this is the most important part of reaching any goal.
lean into the contrast 🌚🌝
HAPPY MONDAY!
