🌸 A Gentle Beginning
There are moments when we forget who we are.
We abandon ourselves trying to please others, meet expectations, or avoid conflict.
Slowly, piece by piece, we disappear.
But there comes a moment—quiet, small, honest—
When we whisper to ourselves,
“I deserve to choose me again.”
That moment was the beginning of choosing yourself again.
That moment is the beginning of returning home to yourself.
💭 Choosing Yourself Again
Choosing yourself isn’t always loud.
It’s not always a big life change or dramatic exit.
Sometimes, it’s as soft as saying no.
Or taking a breath before answering.
Or deciding not to explain yourself anymore.
Choosing yourself means remembering that your needs matter.
That your peace is not selfish.
That your life belongs to you.
Even if you’ve spent years ignoring your own voice—
You can come back now.
You can choose yourself again.
✍️ Reflect & Write: Choosing Yourself Again
When was the last time you abandoned yourself to please someone else?
What would it look like to choose yourself again today?
🌱 Grounding Practice: Say This to Yourself
Place both hands on your chest.
Breathe in. Breathe out.
Then gently repeat:
“I can return to myself at any time.
I’m allowed to choose me.
Even if I forgot for a while—I remember now.”
Let the words settle. You are home.
💬 Closing Thought
Choosing yourself again is not a betrayal.
It’s a return to truth.
And that truth has always lived inside you.
Choosing yourself again is not selfish—it’s sacred.
You are worth choosing—again and again.
