“Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are.” ~Rachel Naomi Remen
it is interesting how different books or quotes or ideas keep popping up in one's life when they are needed?!?! the words of Rachel Naomi Remen have appeared in my life when I really need to hear them on numerous occasions!
This quote is on a meditation app I use when going to sleep and I find that this quote addresses so much more than just physical well being ~ if there is really a division when it comes to health?!?!
so I send this intention out to all of us ~ "to let go of everything that isn't you!!" to embrace your authentic self and live!!!
peace & be well ~
