Spirit Speaks: Express Your Truth

Not being able to express ourselves can become a habit. We all have our reasons why we swallow our words, say things we don’t mean and hide our truth. But ultimately this pattern doesn’t serve us. It keeps us locked into a cycle of broken relationships or missed opportunities or not truly giving the gifts we came here to give. Learning to express ourselves takes practice. For most of us it doesn’t come easy because we have learned behaviors that over time make it difficult. But like anything else, we can unlearn these patterns that don’t serve us. We can start by examining how we feel about things. Journaling our thoughts and feeling gives voice to our deepest truths. Once we write them down, it becomes so much easier to express ourselves out loud. Taking the time to really listen to ourselves and then to say what truth needs to be said, gives us the voice to heal relationships, contribute to conversations and to give the gifts that only we can give.
