IT IS NOT ABOUT TRYING HARDER. Do you relax a little when you read those words? I understand what that is about. You may worry about getting it right or feel that there is a hole inside you that you are trying to fill. Frustration, anxiety, depression and fear frequently arise because we do what we "should" and yet we still hurt. You are not alone in feeling this way. Getting it right and being happy in any area of your life is not about trying harder. You start by just being willing to believe that there is another way.
I believe that stopping to clean, dress and stitch up your emotional injuries is a critical step toward attaining the life that you want. Counseling is an invaluable way to get help with this process. You can feel valued and understood and your old beginnings can have new endings.
You can live in a way that feels wonderful to you. All that is required is that you be willing to consider that there is another way to be and know that you do not have to find your way alone. I would love to hear from you and help you.
