Are you connected within yourself? Yes – How? / No – WHY not?
Maybe it is time to Connect to disconnect. What does it mean? It means connect within yourself and disconnect with thoughts like worry, self-doubt, negativity, frustration, confusion, bitterness and even stress.
Are you overwhelmed with things going on in your life now? Are you looking after everything and everyone and always putting yourself last? Do you not do anything for yourself? Are you neglecting yourself in favour of others? Are you unhappy from the inside out with no idea of where to start to make changes? Sometimes we need a wakeup call to make the impossible possible, because everything lies within us already.
Here is a little story about a friend of mine...
A remarkably close friend of mine did everything for everyone in her family, while completely losing the connection with her inner self. She just existed and walked around like a zombie. She was moody, exhausted, stressed out about even tiny little things and it was the start of major health problems for her.
Finally, she went to the doctor only to be informed that she had breast cancer. It was the shock of her life; a wakeup call; the reality check for her to finally make some changes. She did not think it was important to connect with her inner self, to have the resilience to confront all the challenges that were coming her way. She realised it was time for a change.
She used the following tips to re-connect with her inner self that changed her life and gave her the strength and power to survive breast cancer. She took control over her thoughts again.
