Your mind will always believe everything you tell it.
Feed it faith. Feed it truth. Feed it with love.

I learned a really cool exercise from my favourite therapist, and that is to allow ALL the swirling thoughts an opportunity to be heard. He believes in the “Inner Family” model, which includes the ego (an honourable protector, but often calculating and perhaps a bit cold), the inner child (super sweet, vulnerable and often the keeper of truths), spirit (our highest, optimistic and altruistic self) and the adult (the face we show the world and take to work), who keeps it all together. He says by writing from each vantage point we bring nurturing, support and clarity to our inner turbulence. Personally, I find the exercise calming and comforting. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
