Let It Heal

 Let It Heal


"Healing doesn't mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls your life"


And Never Let It.


When we've been through a serious illness, it does take time to physically heal, and we have to let the body 'do it's job'.

How much better we feel when we are 'over it'.


This, of course, can also apply to the mind.

When we've been through a very 'difficult' situation, our minds are 'damaged' and we need to help it to get better.

This includes not re-thinking what happened, and filling our minds with good things to 'fight' the bad memories. 

This will take time and is sometimes a life-long 'treatment'.


Also, never be afraid to ask for help — it is there.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

A Good Idea

 A Good Idea


"Sometimes having coffee with your best friend is all the therapy you need" 


Why spend money you can't afford, speaking to someone you don't know, for half an hour, when you can spend an hour and a half, with your best friend, drinking your favourite drink, for free?

And you feel much better afterwards. 


Don't get me wrong, therapy is so very important, and these therapists are specially trained, but sometimes, being with your best friend and talking is a better 'kind' of therapy.


Also, we could ask ourselves: "Will my best friend feel 'comfortable' enough to come to me and talk?"


Life really can be a two-way street.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

"It" Won't Leave You

 "It" Won't Leave You 


"What breaks you, won't heal you. What loves you, Won't leave you"


We all know this: going through a bad situation can have such a bad effect on our health, that we need that Special Love to 'heal' us.


And real Love will never leave you!


When we have this true Love, "we" are the ones who are living in the greener patch.

And we deserve this.


True Love is also good for our mental health too.


All the worry leaves you because 'you just know' that it is right.

"What loves you, won't leave you".


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Be Strong!

 Be Strong!


"The pain of yesterday is the strength of today"


We all go through life learning from one experience to another, and we can be either Strengthened or weakened by this.

Also, when we look back at what we have gone through, how do we feel?

We should feel Proud of how far we have come, and how we may have changed for the better. 


In different words: we won't make that mistake again.


When something 'happens', it is very painful at the time, and it is then that we need to look forwards and remember how much Stronger we will be in the future.

So, look in the mirror and be really Proud because you are that much Stronger. 


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Happy, Healthy, Alive

 Happy, Healthy, Alive 


"I don't want a perfect life, but I'll take a happy life"


What is perfection?

Do we need to be perfect?

My answers to these two questions are => 

If you are alive > you have perfection.

To be alive > is to be perfect.


We are brought up and raised with "facts" about 'how' we should live and 'who' we should be.

But is this 'healthy' for us personally?

Surely it would be better to "accept" who we are and to live accordingly. 


To be "True" to ourselves. 


It is true, that we do have to live by certain standards = get the sums right and making sure we can read and write correctly, (I call these the 'basics' of life), but = we should "live" in a way which makes us Personally Happy. 


This is Perfect.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Be Happy, Be Healthy

 Be Happy, Be Healthy 


"I've decided to be happy because it is good for my health"


This is a fact!


The more Positive we are, the Happier we are, the Healthier we are.

What affects the mind 'will' affect the body.

Do we want to be a negative person and ill?

Do we want to be a Positive person and Healthy?

Of course, the emphasis is on us as individuals, to "help ourselves".

We must be Determined to read, think and do Positive things.

What we see with the eye, or hear with the ear, affects us mentally. 

When we physically look at Positive 'pictures', our minds eye will remember and (eventually) it's 'all' we will see in our minds.


The effect from this?


We will smile more and be happier and feel good.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Control The Mind


"There is nothing in this world that can trouble you as much as your own thoughts "


Mental health is a big thing now (thankfully).

It is hard to Control our own minds, as every single memory is stored in our brains, and we can be 'forever' re-living a memory that we had so many years ago.

And this affects our emotions, which will eventually affect us physically. 

Thankfully, today, there is a lot more help for our mental health, and it's not all popping pills.

'Therapy' can take many forms, with many different people, and we need to find the right one for us personally. 

Meditation is a useful 'tool' in helping us to Control our own minds.

Positive reading is reading Positive words, and this can help to re-train our minds to "think" Positive thoughts.

This is a Good start.


LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
