I am enough.*

 I need this reminder often.  Please feel free to read this as an affirmation, take what resonated and leave behind the rest.

I am enough.

I am enough when I wake up in the morning.

I am enough when I fall asleep at night.

My worth does not fluctuate with the tides or the phases of the moon. It is ever constant and affirmed with each breath that enters my lungs.

My body is enough.

I am the expert in my body.

I decide how it is cared for and how it is fueled.

My stretch marks are a reminder that I choose to take up the space I am worth and not shrink to meet someone else’s ideals.

My mind is enough.

I choose to struggle with something new or even something old, as a way to grow instead of remain the same.

I recognize that change is the support of stability.

I like a snake shedding its skin, embrace uncomfortable transformation as a means to my expansion.

My soul is enough

I give myself permission to experience all of my feelings and all of my thoughts.

I am enough even when I descend into dark places.

There is no depth without the contrast of dark to light.

Each day I strive to ask for and willingly receive what I need from myself and others. I strive to set and maintain the boundaries required for my body, mind and soul. I strive to define my own perfection as imperfection. Each day I strive to say the words out loud  I am enough.

With Love,
Erin
