Most of us have had experiences where we have kept our truth quiet or hidden because we were taught to do so as children or we've created beliefs about how we "should" be and are not living up to those standards. However by doing so, we unintentionally create shame around our truths. And, when we become shameful of our truths, we end up cutting off, discrediting, and devaluing a hugely important chunk of who we are and how we show up in the world. Today, it is time to stop shaming yourself when you feel as if you aren't perfect. And, just as important- stop allowing superficial people from shaming you when you aren't being the perfect person or friend. Today, it is time to reclaim your truth and value its power. It is time that you feel all your feelings and accept that you are not perfect and that is perfectly okay. And, when you begin to accept your imperfections, you will release energy, old shame, and subconscious blocks that may now be holding you back from living your life to the fullest. Today, reclaim your truth and value its power. When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you.

Just for today, I am a beautiful, blessed child of the Universe-inside and out. I am important. I am valuable. I am loved. I am safe. I am enough. And so it is.
