Too Raw?

Some people may think I’m too raw, they say that I should use trigger warnings🤔…I disagree🤷🏻‍♀️. I believe that we need to stop hiding from things that make us uncomfortable & be brave enough to face them✊

If you are triggered by my message, that’s great!!…it means you’ve had an IN-SIGHT on where you need to focus👀 & where you need to put in work in order to heal🧘🏻‍♀️

We need to start talking about the things that are difficult to talk about🗣. We can’t and shouldn’t hide from our triggers🫣, we need to bring them from darkness to light🔥…if we don’t they grow and take over our lives and the space for our true self shrinks🫠

That’s why I talk about things nobody wants to talk about🤷🏻‍♀️…that’s why I get raw and vulnerable. We need to stop being ashamed of our shadows. Shame thrives in darkness and creates all kinds of destructive coping mechanisms🥃 and mental health disorders🥴

Shedding light on the things that make us ashamed of ourselves is how you get rid of it👋. When you bring your darkest secrets to light , shame dissipate and our mental health is given the space to flourish🌼🌸🌺

We stop believing that we are flawed and realize that we are actually quite normal for what we have been through😀. We start to accept ourselves and forgive ourselves for the things we did to survive…this leaves space for self-care and self-love to move in❤️

That’s why I always speak my truth no matter what the consequences💪, it’s liberating🕊 + …I know it helps others do the same, it gives them permission & the space to do the same…& that’s exactly why I founded Lighting Up Dark Corners😏

Because the light always overcomes the darkness🕯🕯🕯…& I believe that together we can overcome all the darkness that has taken over our world🌎 and make it shine like it was created to💫
