ADULTHOOD IS A S#!%SHOW
Changing is worth the nouns you lose. You aren’t here to live someone else’s dreams, nor play the role they’ve assigned you. It’s your fucking life. Focusing on my growth forced me to get rid of stagnant, low vibrational people holding me back. Had I done it their way I wouldn’t be fucking iconic. Let them go if it means keeping yourself, the only way to elevate is to evolve. Via: Bandaid For Heart

Treat yourself with some grace, trauma rewires the brain. After all we’re products of our environments and experiences. Being tortured for years I was no longer interested in the things I love, not as productive, and only able to handle a fraction of my usual activities. Sometimes I’d get upset with my new behavior, now I’m proud for having accomplished anything, pushing myself as best I could under the circumstances. Especially having a fried nervous system that prevented sleep, now I need more to heal and that’s okay. Sleep is a gift. Acknowledge your trauma and act accordingly. Via: Furthur_Coaching
Gut feeling, sixth sense. Whatever identifier you give doesn’t matter, as long as you follow it. Without fail, every time I’ve ignored my intuition I’ve deeply regretted it, my dealings with Hollywood epitomizing the lesson. Had I ignored the vibes and listened to anyone over my instincts, people would be dead, trafficked and sacrificed. Let that sink in. Remember it every time you doubt that unconscious knowing. That’s your soul speaking, picking up on hidden agendas. Via: Nyisha Walton Facebook
Listen I don’t know who needs to see this right now, but here. It’s the weekend and about that time where mess starts. Next thing you know you’re wasted, suddenly messaging that toxic person seems like a marvelous idea. It’s not. Don’t do it. Respect yourself until it’s a habit. Via: Thorns Poetry
Learn the lesson and move the fuck on. Don’t confuse abuse with love no matter who it comes from: friends, family, lovers. Don’t repaint people. When they show you who they are believe them, not the potential you see. Save yourself, let them go. Via: Law Of Healing
Let’s start the work week with a vision recalibration. This chart was meant for the Lion’s Gate Portal, clearly you can use it at anytime. As we transition from relaxed to amped up with the changing of the seasons, it’s good to take stock of where you are and where you want to be. Exercises like these allow for spiritual expansion and brain rewiring. You are your thoughts, don’t go on auto-pilot with your life. Via: Oui We Girl (Website)
Learn to accept, understand and appreciate the universes timing. Patience is a virtue I’ve mastered, because good things come to those that wait. Have faith. Divine timing is everything, I’ve learned to love it. Via: How To Be Human Pod
This time last year I was at my wits, end down to my skin breaking out. Overwhelmed, overworked, taken advantage of, burnt out and abused terribly is an understatement. Currently I feel amazing after prioritizing my mental health, giving me a much needed life reset. I must admit managing my PTSD sans medication is no easy feat. I underestimated how it was affecting my day to day in every way, this disorder isn’t a joking matter. You have to actively work at combating your trauma. Feeling the best you can in healthy ways is of the upmost importance, life is too short and you deserve to enjoy it. Mental health matters, if you’re feeling spent don’t ignore it, trust me it compounds. Are you burnt out? Via:_Mindfully Fresh
Once Law Roach told that OMG Fashun! contestant they looked like “a lady of the night going to coronation,” I knew he too learned from mother. Not all mothers are good to their children, but they’ve raised you and it shows. Despite constantly aiding in defaming me, I wouldn’t be nearly as good at dragging people without Naomi Campbell, she raised generations.
You bitches didn’t check your lipstick before coming for me. Sometimes self-care is setting boundaries by giving the same energy you receive. Stop prioritizing yourself last; letting people live in delusion and shitty behavior at your expense means you need to learn self-love. Takers take, how else will they learn if you continuously enable them? Personally, I’ve learned to do a 3 strike max. Who do you need to put in their place? Via: Literally.Iconic

Here are some ways to find happiness! Don’t underestimate immersing yourself in nature. It created it us, it resets us, it grounds us, it cleanses us. Balance out that screen time with a walk in the park, a day at the beach, or just sitting by a body of water, a river, a lake etc…What are some other ways you find joy? Pick at least one of these to focus on this week if you’re struggling. Via: Slimy Oddity
