I realize now that meditation is only one part of self-care.
When I was in my late twenties, I signed up for a course designed to help you manifest a bunch of cool stuff with your mind. At the time, I had about a decade of radical positivity under my belt. If there was an uplifting affirmation out there, I’d say it on repeat. If there was a sad person in front of me, I’d tell them to “breathe deep.” And if there was some essential oil that came with a lifetime guarantee of happiness, I’d slather that shit all over my body.
To the outside world, I was the picture of physical health and overall well-being. But deep down past the layer of superficial calm, there was a broken, lost child. There was a young girl who had survived ongoing physical, mental, and emotional abuse for much of her childhood. And there was a kid who yelled loud and cried hard to protect herself from ever being hurt again.
