How to Allow Yourself to Feel and Heal

Sara Allwright

What could you do differently?

What could I do differently?

Hmmm…

I know what I NEED to do differently.…….

I need to acknowledge my feelings!

I need to give myself permission to ‘FEEL’…to feel grief, to feel anger, sadness, peace, happiness and joy.

I need to stop hiding. I need to be honest with myself. I need to accept I have wounds, and to allow and give myself time to heal. I need to build self worth, forgive myself, love myself…even if it’s just a tiny bit!

Eeeek…I thought this was going to be a one line answer! I got a little carried away 🤪.

Anyways, this is not a negative post…this is a very positive one!

I’m just acknowledging, that I need to give myself a little time to grieve the loss of my dear friend. I’m going to give myself the time to cry!

This is my first step in allowing myself to ‘FEEL’.

Apologies if I’m a little distant for a few days….or however, long!

Thank you for reading, my friends! ♥️

Happy Tuesday…Taco Tuesday for some! I’m sure that wouldn’t want to be done differently! hehe…

  17. None of us can dictate how others feel, but we each go through loss in our lives. It’s inevitable. You more you love, the harder the loss.

    Take the time to grieve and heal. There is always sun after a rainshower.

  21. Feeling your feelings isn’t as easy as it sounds, we can be numb for long periods of time and sometimes that feels OK, but healing and peace is even better 🙏 lovely thoughts Sara 💗
