— “Now feeling confident, proud of Me and the freedom I've won. Now feeling happy, joyful, filled with laughter. Feeling peace, contentment And love. Now I just live in joy, peace, and happiness, centered and calm as I go about my life being me.”
A healing journey is about both letting go and welcoming. It's about letting go of thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and even people that are not serving you. It's about welcoming and incorporating thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and people that will empower, enrich, and energize your life.
