During the first lockdown, thinking it was going to go on for only a few weeks, I admittedly, was grateful for a break from life and it was the perfect distraction from dealing with anything that needed to be dealt with. Everything was on hold. Cut to 6 weeks later and I was struggling to keep my head above water. I was filled with anxiety, I felt trapped in myself not knowing what to do with the time that I had, no idea what direction to go in next, stressed about money, worrying about the future, missing my friends and I was caught up in a whirlwind of overwhelm and I didn’t know how to get out of it. Fear manifesting in ways like; I was scared of being seen. Nervous and overanalysing things, afraid of sharing anything on social media, fear of not being good enough or fear of being judged...

I know that I am not here to be perfect and perfectionism is an impossible task. We as humans are messy, we make mistakes, we don’t have all the answers and that is good! We’re not here on this Earth to be perfect but we’re here to be real, to learn, to step out, to grow, to thrive, to love and be happy! And to share our love with those around us.I take every day as it comes and I allow myself to be in whatever energy I am in. I accept myself fully for where I am at. No judgement. I surrender to what is and I allow emotions to come up and move through me. Feelings in motion. I am grateful everyday. And I love wholeheartedly.We are all worthy and deserving of unconditional love. And so I practice every day.
