I have written a million posts and rewritten them

I have written a million posts and rewritten them all. Nothing I say feels right, maybe because nothing is right. All I can say is I am picking up, and staying on the line. This system is racist and toxic and I don’t want to be silent even though I’m having trouble finding the words. This country and the racist system that fuels it is not okay; we must do better. I don’t have answers but I’m listening and I’m learning and I’m vowing to stay on the line...I’m staying on the line.

You are not over reacting. Let's break down the te

You are not over reacting. Let's break down the term here for a second. "Over" reacting implies that there is a defined standard for reaction, and that there is an implicit marker, or degree of reaction, that one can go "over" or "under". ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So - from that level of thinking - there is some objective measure of reaction out there that is considered appropriate. Well - who sets that measure? Where's the book that records these measures? And for that matter, is there one set measure of reaction for all things? Or is there a different measure of reaction for every single effing experience known to man? Whoa - that's got to be a big ass book that records all of those appropriate reaction levels. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You get my point? There is no appropriate reaction - there is only what you feel. If someone is telling you that you are "over" reacting, what they are really saying is this...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I am not comfortable with emotion, and I want you to stop expressing your emotions because of my discomfort, so I'm going to tell you that you are wrong, because that's a pretty effective way to get people to stop doing something". ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There is no "over" or "under" reaction. There is no measure. There is only what you are feeling. If you could try to just show up, and be with your feelings, you might see that you have never been wrong. Your body was trying to tell you something. You needed your own attention (and you may have been given some really loud and intense signals in order to get that attention). But you were never "wrong". #selfesteemquotes #buildselfesteem #growth #healing #healingjourney #selfesteem #selfempowerment #selfcompassion #recovery ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Your tears are not a sign of weakness, they are the evidence of the depth of your experience. Your anguish is not a sign of fragility, it is the evidence that you risked the unknown and gave yourself to a process that involved caring so much about something that in losing it you lost a piece of yourself. Your fatigue is not a sign you are incapable, it is evidence that your body, your mind, and your soul have given so profoundly that you must take time to recover and replenish. Your sorrow is not a evidence that you are broken, it is indicative of a life lived with the courage and a willingness to embrace all of your experience, not just that which feels comfortable. Keep crying, warrior - our tears are reminders that we are human, whole, and alive. #innerguidance#innerwork#modernmystic#innerknowing#universehasyourback#universalenergy#soulguidance#highestself#divineguidance#intuitivehealer #soulgrowth#souljourney#innerguidance#youcreateyourownreality#feminineenergy #divinefeminine #therapistmemes #eatingdisordertherapy #eatingdisordertherapist #recovery #followyourintuition #endingthedietmindset

Reciprocity. Give and take. Another form of balance that can be so elusive and difficult to maintain. Especially for women. So many women have been given the cultural message that providing and care taking is their role, their purpose. As such, they give and give and spend very little time receiving. This leads to burnout, exhaustion, and often times, resentment. Receiving is the furthest thing from selfish - it is the essence of the feminine. It is critical for ensuring that we have the energy and essence to continue to provide for and care for others. Without it, we are giving from a place of deficit, and I believe that this is where illness (of both the soul and the body) is born. #selfesteemquotes #buildselfesteem #growth #healing #healingjourney #selfesteem #selfempowerment #selfcompassion #recovery ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This right here. The friendship of women. I’ve known most of these beautiful women for most of my life. Many of us met when we were 13. We’ve been together through it all...the innocence of first boyfriends, awkward teenage social drama, falling in love, first kisses, broken hearts, teenage angst, epic partying, leaving each other for college and coming back in the summer to share our experiences, the journey of discovering life after college (something entire books should be written about), career twists and turns, enduring the dating scene, engagements, marriages, babies, divorces, loss, anxiety, life threatening health problems, cross country moves, job losses, aging parents, our own bodies aging and the list goes on and on. It literally is a gift to have people who know you deeply, who share your story on a visceral level, from experience. The laughter i have shared with these people is nothing short of magic. With these women i can laugh in a way that is hard to describe...deep full belly laughter that takes my breath away, brings tears to my eyes, and in its own way feels about as good as anything I can describe. A circle of women is a powerful force - and it is never too late to find one. Women’s circles are popping up everywhere these days. Even in the time of Covid-19, when we are being asked to stay apart, women’s circles are emerging online and in the virtual spaces to support and hold space for one another. I see this as a sign of hope for the health and healing of this world. Never underestimate the power of women when they band together. It is encoded in our DNA to connect, and when we do amazing things happen. ❤️❤️ #womenscircle #womenempowerment #womensupportingwomen #womeninspiringwomen #feminineenergy #divinefeminine #friendsforever #friendshipofwomen

I was so honored to be featured in the 2020 @gurzecatalog. Ending The Diet Mindset has been a labor of love for me for the past two years. I have spoken, written and talked about the idea of diet culture and diet mindset across the country and have had the privilege of being one voice among many in the advocacy to prevent eating disorders and disordered eating. We have done amazing work, but we still have a long way to go. I am thankful for @gurzecatalog and other entities that help us do this important work. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Be weary of the guru's, the gimmicks, the sales pitches and the pressure's of perfectionism. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your path is yours to find. It has yet to be forged, and as such couldn't exist in someone else's plan/program/prescription/process. Be discerning and question the source of all things (start with this post - do you agree?) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
