An abundant life filled with joy, purpose and peace – that’s the promise that I’m buying into now.
For many years I suffered from depression. I was diagnosed and prescribed, and honestly, I did do better with chemicals. I faithfully took my scripts for probably twenty years.
Things changed in our lives. We moved to Kentucky to be closer to my husband’s family. For several years, we had no health insurance and I simply had to do without.
In the intervening time, I found meditation and journaling, began a conscious process to improve my mental health and coping skills, and by the time I could see a doctor again I no longer needed chemistry to live well and happily.
I am NOT suggesting you try this! It’s not the best way to reduce chemical dependency! We managed to get by, and I am grateful to have survived, but it was no picnic.
But the fact remains that I no longer have the need for that kind of support, and I count that blessing every day.
We each embody so much more power than most of us ever realize!
You have the power to turn your life around, or upside down.
Greet your intrinsic power with a smile today, and join hands with it as you move forward into the life you want to lead! You can become anything you want to be. Drink your coffee, and get after it!
Have a marvelous day today!
