“Your suffering needs you to acknowledge it”…

Go back and take care of yourself. 

Your body needs you, your feelings need you, your perceptions need you.
Your suffering needs you to acknowledge it.

Go home and be there for all these things.

— Thich Nhat Hanh

My favourite therapist would agree. He says that simply saying things out loud and/or writing them down can provide the space and time for healing. He also says the only way to “the other side” of some of our old, nagging issues is through the muck (which is admittedly not fun, and not for the faint of heart has he puts it). For me, regular professional check ins and/or utilizing the tools I’ve acquired through traditional therapy and life coaching helps keep the monkey off my back, so to speak. (Cause life is stressful, right?!) Just sayin’ :). Hugs and good luck. XO

Blessings,
