We ’ re socialized from a young age that we have to do more, have more, give more, achieve more, in order to be valuable, be deserving. to be worthy, to
That we should always be “improving ” ourselves. “fixing ” and
This comes from basic survival instinct…this concept of sitting around and “doing nothing ” will get you eaten by predators.
How does this show up in modern day North America?
Working 50-60 hour weeks,
not setting work and home life boundaries, feeling like I had to prove that I could handle it all.
Definitely no regular self-care practice.
'dI exercise for hours in the gym, believing my body had to look a certain shape and size for people to like me.
'I d worry when my man would hang out with his friends without me, wondering if his friends approved of me, and what I should do to get

When you believe in the lie that you are not enough, doing more, having more, giving more, achieving more, will never be enough.
BUT YOU ARE ALREADY WHOLE, ENOUGH, VALUABLE, AND WORTHY FOR SIMPLY EXISTING.
BECAUSE YOU ARE.
When you trust that and believe in that, you will naturally be more confident and assertive, trusting that what you say is valuable, even if the other person doesn’t necessarily agree with you.
You
’ll care less about other people’s opinions about you and not be swayed so easily by what they say.
You’ll stop trying to impress others and know that just by walking into a room and being yourself, people will be impressed by you.
You’ll do fewer things out of obligation,
say “no” when you really mean “no”
, and say “yes” more often to the things you want and enjoy.
You will actually be present and enjoy time with your partner and kid(s) instead of thinking about your to-do list for home and work.
When you believe that you are whole, worthy, valuable, and enough for just being you, life becomes less stressful, more joyful, and fulfilling.
