I’d like to share the following words of wisdom by best-selling author Cheryl Richardson, written for a struggling friend who needed love and compassion. My hope is that it provides comfort to those of you who feel in need of similar support as well.
Don’t worry, you’ll be okay
Slowing down is good
Wisdom simmers and steeps and grows with time
Stop pushing yourself
You are enough just as you are
There is no need to perform
Just relax
Let life unfold
You have what it takes to handle anything
Anything
Good things come from patience, not pushing
Let space and time reveal something miraculous
Trust life
Accept where you are
Right now
Stop the judgment and internal lectures
Just be here
Don’t run or think or eat or scheme
Return to yourself in this moment
Where life is perfect and peaceful and safe
Action Step:
Just take a deep breath and relax.
