Write for Relief

...from sadness, anxiety, however you're feeling

Hello Dear One,

How are you?

I was having a great January: until yesterday. Yesterday thing after thing hadn’t worked out the way I hoped.

Having the wind taken out of my sails is a pattern for me. Instead of judging myself and asserting how I ‘should’ feel I supported myself as I was. It’s ok not to feel shiny and brilliant all the time. Ask yourself: what do I need?

I’d put prompts together the week before and turned to one. Something that always makes me smile is listing the sounds I love. There’s something so pure about it: anchoring. You could use any of your senses. Sometimes we don’t need to write more about how we’re feeling: we can write about what we love instead. The trick is knowing ourselves well enough to tell the difference.

Instantly I felt relief.

I want to make clear that I don’t believe in forcing yourself to feel grateful. Feel what you feel. And know that even in tough moments, those moments where the sun has gone behind a cloud, it’s possible to find joy. To love what you love.

If you’d like the full book of prompts grab them here.

Thanks for being here and being you.

All love,

Jo
