Until you heal your heart, there will be work to be done

“If you want to heal your heart’s wounds, start healing your thoughts.”

— Alexandra Vasiliu

You might eat all the organic food.

You might do all the exercise.

As I discovered many years ago, I did the above to a 'T', yet I was still missing the point.

I dramatically changed the way I looked on the outside, yet I was still screaming out for love, inside.

SELF-LOVE.

In fact, it wasn't until quite some time later that I realised how harshly I treated myself.

I deprived, restricted and (it pains me to say), tortured my body. 

Then, I was needy of the world.

Then, I started paying attention to my thoughts.

Then, I realised I'd never considered the wellbeing of my HEART.

Then, I started meditating.

Now, I am devoted to ME. 

Now, I want to GIVE to the world.

It's our responsibility to put an end to the trauma, grief, shame and self-hatred that we might be carrying.

Until you heal your heart, there will be work to be done.

Your heart's work, is the real work.

Written with love,
Natasha
