I've learned acceptance of myself and my past and now I can look forward to the future.
@Kyneme
Such a great tool. I'm so happy for you.
The listening exercises really keep me calm. They help me to really reflect and feel at peace with life while doing them.
@bman344
I'm so happy they help you :) I hope you'll be able to find even more growth and development through the website as time goes by. Thank you for sharing!
How important daily gratitude is to keeping a positive outlook <3
@idreamofstars3
It really is. And sometimes it's a bit of a struggle to get there, but it's so worth it! :)
I've learned I should allow myself a few minutes a day to just sit and breath, try to relax and clear my mind. I need to take some time out of each day just for myself, the world will not need me for 5 minutes and I deserve a break from everything and everyone.
@DB2579
Such an important lesson. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
I've reached step ten in my journey and though I haven't quite mastered it yet, I've learned to take time for myself each day. Also, to reach out when I'm in need of help.
@Walkingnature
It sure takes time to master, but I'm so happy and proud of you for taking these steps, one at a time! <3 Way to go, you! And thanks for sharing!

Hope it would prove itself worthy to you! :)
I've learned that deep breathing and meditation are effective ways to collect all my negative energy and harness it in a positive way.
@brightKiwi767
Such an important tool, right? Hoping soon enough you won't have that much negativity to harness! Keep on being strong and wonderful!
Level 50..I haven't learned much in all honesty. It seems like I'm doing the same thing over and over again. Need new and different steps.
@Shoebox
Sorry to hear you're not loving the exercises so far :(
I've only been on this site for a few days. It's surprising that I've made it here so quickly. I expected for it to take a little while. I'm still not completely familiar with the site. I don't know how to find everything, but I'm learning. I have a feeling that this is going to be an interesting experience.
Today, I accessed a listener for the first time. I found it to be helpful. This may sound funny, considering that last night, I became a listener. I've only spoken as a listener to four people, I think. I don't know how that's going to go, but I'm going to try to learn to be a better at reflective listening. It isn't my strong suit yet, but having a listener is better than not having one.
All in all, I think that this is going to be a good experience. Thanks creating this space and for allowing the opportunity for us to heal and grow together.
@CompassionHelps
Thank you so much for sharing. You seem like a very compassionate, loving, sensitive person who is going to make a wonderful listener.
@MsEmma Thank you, it's often very much struggle for me to open up. It's harder to feel validated and accepted. It's was really nice of you to say that.
