Fix Ourselves or Be Ourselves?
Manage episode 497329855 series 2390331
In today’s episode of Ten Minutes to Less Suffering, I explore the difference between constantly trying to fix ourselves and learning to fully inhabit who we already are. When we stop searching for solutions outside ourselves and begin to listen inwardly, we return to a place of clarity, presence, and strength.
Affirmation:
I don’t chase wholeness. I remember it. Even in heartbreak, in silence, in longing—Wholeness was never gone.
I am not a problem to solve. I am not waiting to be rescued. Even when I ache, I am not less. Even when I stumble, I am not lost.
I begin here. As I am. Breathing. Listening. Living.
Healing is not becoming someone new. It is the soft, honest return to who I’ve always been.
I can spend my life trying to fix myself… Or I can finally choose to be myself. One is endless effort. The other is freedom. I want to be free.
Here I am. Not fixing. Just being. And Maybe that… is enough.
