Don\u2019t Try to Escape Your Reality<\/h4>\n

Many of us, myself included, enjoy escaping reality when life gets rough. But escapism is really a form of self-denial, and it comes in many forms and masks. Some may see it as a coping mechanism, but the truth is it isn\u2019t a fix or a cure. It just delays the healing we need and the self-love we are starving for. In truth, escapism is really an uncomfortable island for each of us.<\/p>\n

You Can\u2019t Hide From Yourself Forever <\/b><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve learned that no matter how much I tried to hide or run away from the things I didn\u2019t like about myself, those things still found a way to creep in. Eventually, escapism stopped working for me and I was left with nowhere else to hide. I had to face the things I was in denial about. I felt lonely, angry, betrayed, and anxious at first and it was painful. But it was what I needed to go through in order to reestablish trust within myself. I had forgotten to be kind to myself.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Exploring Your Inner Workings <\/b><\/p>\n

I took a staycation. I explored my inner workings and let whatever insecurities I had arise and be released with love. I advise you to do the same. Get in the habit of doing something lovely for yourself every day. Take a long walk or soak in an inviting bath. Build a relationship with yourself.<\/p>\n

Discover Limitlessness <\/b><\/p>\n

Slowly, I began to enjoy my awkward nature. I learned to embrace my flaws. I accepted and even enjoyed being a \u201cparty of one.\u201d After all, it was ludicrous to think that everyone else would accept me when I was essentially rejecting myself. If you embrace yourself, you will discover that you are limitless.<\/p>\n

A Higher Vibrational Experience <\/b><\/p>\n

Having no limits can be intimidating at first, but if you release yourself from the prison within, you can have a higher vibrational experience. New doors will open for you if you stay present and authentic with yourself. If you have an authentic connection with yourself, you will have authentic connections with the people around you. Authenticity is a powerful tool of self-love and manifestation.<\/p>\n

Give Yourself What You Give to Others <\/b><\/p>\n

You are the vehicle for your success and the gasoline is the thoughts that propel you forward toward an exciting new adventure. So learn to give yourself what you give to others. Never exclude yourself! Give yourself the same faith, love, respect and trust that you give to others.<\/p>\n

May the days that follow always be a blessing!<\/p>\n
