“Don’t let your mind bully your body into believing it must carry the burden of its worries.” ~Astrid Alauda
It’s an easy thing to do. Our bodies and minds are so connected that stress and worry can actually cause disease.
We don’t have to be the victims of our anxieties. At any time, we can choose to alleviate the pressure.
We can take a break at any time. We can disconnect at any time. We can call a friend at any time. We can cry at any time. We can move at any time. We can hug at any time. We can stop at any time. We can breathe at any time.
Today, and this moment, is a perfect time to release the burden or your worries.

Though I run this site, it is not mine. It's ours. It's not about me. It's about us. Your stories and your wisdom are just as meaningful as mine.

“We don’t have to be the victims of our anxieties.” Oftentimes, we feel stuck in our life situations…in reality, that is a lie. We’re never stuck. We can always take action in some way to create a ‘new normal’ and re-launch our lives.
What a wonderful perspective. Thank you for commenting!
