There are positive and healthy avenues of self renewal and healing out there. Knowing what is noise and and what is designed to keep you feeling low/afraid is a great first step. Finding the invisible enemy and shutting it off.

For me, I struggle with impostor syndrome and low self esteem, but that’s due to years of bad relationships and drinking. I’m still struggling to overcome the guilt of the past, and being mindful and being in the present is actually something I learned through therapy and reading.

Gotta start with yourself; you can’t serve others if your own plate has been bare for too long. It’s when we stabilize ourselves and find that center of love/peace, that we heal ourselves and in turn can heal others.

There is a silly story passed around the internet about a college professor imparting wisdom to his students, but the quote stuck with me. “You all have a little bit of ‘I want to save the world’ in you, and that’s why you’re here. I want you to know it’s ok if you can only save one person. And it is ok if that one person is yourself.”
