Internal Acceptance Movement

“Perhaps the biggest tragedy of our lives is that freedom is possible,

Yet we can pass our years trapped in the same old patterns.

We may want to love other people without holding back,

To feel authentic,

To breathe in the beauty around us,

To dance and sing.

Yet each day we listen to the inner voice that keeps our life small.” 

Tara Brach

It’s the voice that tells us we aren’t good enough.

The one that tells us to hold back because we’re bound for failure. 

The one that keeps us alone and isolated.

We may not be able to prevent the thoughts from appearing in our head,

But we do have the power to choose whether or not we listen to them.

We have the ability to decide how we act in response to what we feel.

It may be easier to agree with the thoughts than to argue against them, but it certainly doesn’t make us feel any better.

In choosing what’s easy, you’re choosing to watch your life unfold as a bystander. 

You’re choosing to live a limited, half-life.

And ultimately, you’re choosing not to live at all.

Let today be the day you fight back.

The day you reclaim your power.

The day you allow your authentic self to shine.

It’s time to break free from your chains.

Its time to live your life.
