Intellectually understand how to move beyond just…..“surviving.” 

Do you hear yourself asking…

“Why do I always do that, or Why can’t I stop doing that, or What’s wrong with me?”

Do you hear yourself saying….

“I don’t know who I am.”

Are you uncomfortable in your own head? Preferring to remain busy or distracted or numb….

You’ve come to the right place.

First off, you aren’t broken. It’s more likely that you’re “adapted.”

Maybe you “adapted” to fit in, or belong, or stay safe in relationships. Maybe you “adapted” to protect yourself from threats. Maybe you “adapted” so you could endure what you couldn’t change or escape. Maybe you “adapted” to maintain a professional career or marriage.

This was survival, and these adaptations were necessary and correct.

However, these adaptations become heavily ingrained, keeping you in survival/safety mode……an exhausting and sometimes excruciating way to live. They govern your beliefs, perceptions, fears and behaviors ….. and your waking mind struggles to understand or control them.

So, who you’ve needed to be…..is in conflict with who you want to be, or wish you were.

This internal conflict can worsen over time, and lead to mental and/or physical health symptoms that eventually become unbearable or unmanageable. This is very important to listen to, and act upon.

These symptoms are a warning signal, requiring that you choose to attend within.

Possibly, the alert you needed to pause, and proactively seek help to Mind YourSelf.
