レイチェル・ブレイセンのインスタグラム(yoga_girl) - 6月26日 09時31分

There are moments when I have no idea if I'm on the right path. Moments when I doubt my self-worth. A voice in my head pops up and tells me "You should be accomplishing more" or "You're fat", "You're not good enough". If I identify with it my entire world collapses. I start comparing myself to other people; "Actually, I could be thinner. Prettier. More successful." With just a thought I've diminished my entire being. My mind spins into worthlessness and my emotions follow. I scroll through Instagram and everyone is so perfect. All these perfect girls. And here I am, on the couch eating pretzels in a pair of yoga pants that should have been in the wash yesterday. My mind starts looking for solutions. "You should go for a run! And diet! Lose weight! Put make-up on! That will make you feel better!" _
But - FUCK THAT. I am so done with my mind telling me if I do X Y and Z I'll be happier. If I improve, I'll be worthier. It's bullshit. I fucking hate running. Going on a diet sounds like literal torture. I don't want make-up. I want to stay as I am, in my dirty yoga pants, and I want to love myself. In this moment. Now. Not later, not in some imaginary future that never arrives. I want a self-love NOW that's so strong, so unwavering that it doesn't matter what that voice inside my head tells me.
I go outside. The sun is setting. The sky is on fire. It jolts me into this moment. Suddenly I realize, this is real! The sky. It's real. My life, which is fucking fabulous, by the way, is real. This moment. REAL. The neurotic voice inside my head that tells me I'm not good enough? Not real. Not in the slightest. Not even a little bit.
Silence arrives, and with it, the understanding that everything is perfect. That I am perfect. That I am gorgeous and intelligent and so worthy. And that voice in my head? Those picture-perfect Instagram girls have it too. Everyone suffers, and everyone is trying so hard to cover it up.
But in the end... None of it matters. There is only you, this golden sky, and the choice to be here. To not disappear into the false reality your mind creates. To be here. Immersed. Alive. Awake.
What could possibly
ever
be more important than
this?
