What's waiting for you?

I used to be scared of my thoughts.

Those thoughts I would have during my depression, the random thoughts that would pop into my head, all the thoughts that I didn’t want to have in my head.

I made them mean something about me.

That I was a bad person.

That I was really weird, insecure, not enough.

What kind of a mom are you to think something like that?

I thought if it was in my head, then I had to believe it.

That it was there for a reason.

This morning I had a realization: I’m no longer scared of my thoughts. I no longer have to believe anything that I don’t want to.

Do you know how HUGE this is?

I’m not rushing to change models. I’m not rushing to switch my thoughts because I don’t want to think the current one.

There’s this letting go of resistance, a more natural flow in my brain.

I can detach from what’s going on in my mind, and just observe.

And I was like OH, that’s what Brooke and Jody have been talking about this whole time. Oh, THIS is what it’s about.

It’s like in the podcast of Jody’s that I was recently listening to. She talked about how the first stage of awareness is realizing that if you think different thoughts then you feel different emotions. And how amazing it feels to realize that it’s in your control, so you just want to change your thoughts as much as possible.

And from that comes this realization that it doesn’t even matter anyway. That those thoughts don’t mean anything about me, they are just sentences in my brain.

It truly feels like freedom. I get to think the thoughts that I want to think, and not from a place of less than or force. It’s just noticing thoughts that don’t serve me, and letting them go. Then choosing a new thought, simply because it’s one that I want in my life.

Is this something that you want more of in your life? Are you ready to finally see what’s going on in your brain, and stop living at the effect of it?

This is exactly what I work with my clients on. Each session comes with new realizations about their thoughts and the connection in their life. This awareness takes practice and it takes time – but if you never get started, you’re never going to get any closer, right?

Working with me is the perfect place to start exploring those thoughts that you don’t want in your head anymore. Sometimes it can feel hard or scary to start opening up, to face what we fear, and that’s okay.

But that’s why I’m here – you don’t need to be scared. I’m here to lead you through it. I’ve got you.

And I can tell you that on the other side of those thoughts is that freedom for you too.

It’s just waiting for you.
