Yesterday I was telling my husband that I felt I was having a hard time relaying the importance of the inner work I do.
Like some people just don't get why its important and won't even give it a time of day.
They see me saying "this involves journal prompts, healing and coaching" and it goes over their head because of "the norm" of society even though I have said hundreds of times now my success was from inner work.
I decided that no matter if people understood it or not, I know the importance of it and will continue to tell people its needed even if they don't get it or want to understand.
Then, I just received this in messenger
"Wanted to share a HUGE breakthrough that was so difficult! And your tools were essential! [something traumatic was happening to others last night, but went against instincts to say something in fear of confrontation and feeling not place to say something] It really bothered me the rest of the evening and all this morning. I had an epiphany to journal and figure out why I felt so guilty about the inner turmoil of whether or not to say something. As I journaled, I remembered most of the times I had wanted to stand up but was shut down. Either physically with slaps of choke holds, or mentally by being told my opinion was wrong, I had no idea what I was talking about. I was told I made the situation up. And all of this affected how I handled last night. Journaling has been LIFE SAVING!!! I can sit in my thoughts and feelings, but to push through and see-on paper- that I don’t have to keep living in that energy- It comes so much easier when I journal. Thank you so much what you have taught. To think of all the pressure and weight I have on my mind and past trauma, I am so thankful that I can choose to release things as they come up and are brought to my awareness. Thank you for teaching that it’s ok to go against the grain, to be yourself, and the importance of honoring yourself. I feel the weight of feeling inferior and weak releasing. I am so thankful!! My heart, and my eyes, are full of gratitude for my spirit bringing this awareness."
YAY!!!!!
THIS IS WHY I DO WHAT I DO!!!! It brings tears to my eyes every time someone has a breakthrough for themselves and their body from taking the action that can be hard, but so freeing!!

Just try journaling today even if you don't understand why its important.
It's a cathartic release and so worth it to get it out on paper vs holding it in!
