Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs when we least expect them. Sometimes, the aftereffect jolts us to open our eyes or make a change. Other times, a shockwave is sent through the nervous system which leaves us feeling unsure of the next step. Regardless of the result, we often have little control over these curveballs. We simply have to adjust. In those moments, all we can do is give it our best. It doesn't have to be perfect, it doesn't have to be polished, and it doesn't have to be pretty. It just has to be our best effort. And, that might look different in the day-to-day. Some days, your best might be going on a walk and journaling. Other days, your best might be giving yourself the grace to lay in bed or have a good cry. Give yourself the grace and love you deserve, whatever it might look like that day. ❤️ Image inspo via Pinterest #mentalhealth #anxiety #trauma #badhabits #complextrauma #unhealedtrauma #selfhelp #selflove #mentalhealthmatters #socialanxiety #ther...
