Slow down. Listen. Let yourself feel.

We can run from our feelings for years and years in an attempt to keep our demons from the door.

When we finally slow down and let ourselves feel, open the door and welcome the demons with a kind heart, we realise they are not actually our enemy at all, instead their return home is the very remedy necessary for cleansing our wounds.

We may need to cry and be present with past grief and pain, and yet this very learning; to come home and be compassionately with ourselves, is the pathway that in the end forges our strength and liberation.
