Receptive

I have moved into a space of receiving.

Feeling depleted, I have cleared space for myself to rest.

I give and I give and I give.

The days wear me down.

I see how I need space, time, and silence... in order to heal.

Instead of feeling guilty, or selfish, I am giving myself this gift of healing.

The way forward? It is through meditation, through drawing inward.

Here, in the present moment.

Remembering: I am important. I know how to take gentle care of myself. I am worthy.

It is OK to let go.

it is OK to make myself a priority. Instead of taking on more, I am saying no. 

I will sit with what is, without shame.
