Hey lovely Trauma Community <3

Its Monday - some of you dont like mondays, but its still important to make the best out of this day.

I d like to talk with you about something positive today!

I found some poems with you about self care that i d like to share with you.

its ok to feel a lot. and to have a lot of extra emotions you just dont know where to put. just give yourself a hug and remind yourself how beautiful it is to be alive. all the worries in the world and we only have a sprinkle in time to do all we hope to achieve and see. you are doing your best. and if you see room to grow, you can wake up tomorrow and choose to evolve, just breathe. Just be. peace is not from running, but from being in the middle and still feeling serene.

be soft with yourself today. today your best may look different than yesterday. and thats ok, nothing in nature blooms all year around. if you woke up with weight in your chest, breathe. dont hide from the warmth; go outside, read a book, cook yourself a nice meal, and remember … this feeling is not forever. but dont run from what makes you feel. understand yourself, your patterns, go with your waves, your currents, you are doing the best you can. you can be as infinite as the sea, and as soft as a rose. for you are both tender and resilient,

What is one thing you are going to do for yourself today?

Or pop in to say Hi and tell us how your monday is going!

@Hope3729 - Hi!

Today I meditated. Later I am going to try to declare a little, which I'm certain will help my mind as well.

I took a walk for the first time in years today. I've been lying in bed for the last year. It hurt my knees but kissed my soul. I'm not sure if I am doing this right. I definitely belong in the group. Thank you for allowing me to read all your shares.

@amarifey i am really glad to hear that you had the courage to get up and to take a walk! Even getting out of the house can sometimes seem very difficult to us, but I hope you were able to clear you mind outside a bit and to enjoy the fresh air. We‘re so happy to have you here <3 and thank you for sharing your day with us. Best wishes!

Those poems were really nice. :)

I didnt check in yesterday, so I am going to today. Yesterday was really off. Had some internal things happen that I am still not too sure about.

Today what I plan to do for myself is to go grocery shopping. Seems like such a simple event but for me it is really not that easy. I started to put it off again, but decided today has to be the day.

Hope everone had a good day yesterday and that today goes the way you want it to.
