In our present climate it is increasingly import to create a buffer zone between our self-worth and the messages we have gathered about our unworthiness. This may not be obvious and we do find ways to cover that. It is time to revalue what it means to be human.  

Get away, step into the quietness within. We are in a dark patch at the moment. Most people are living on the outer edge of themselves. Circumstances draw us away from our roots. We have lost a story to hold onto to give meaning and purpose. Many have lost ‘their song’. To generate the energy to step away from the chaotic edge is not a copout. To explore the inner journey will have benefits. 
The practice of mindfulness and meditation is an established pathway to our core-self. It can be a challenge to ease ourselves away from media-addiction and other distractions. But for our well-being in every aspect of our life it is worth the effort.  Many find moments of quietness following the breathing and using a mantra brings an inner clarity and an inner connection to a new story of personal self worth.

Charles Wesley wrote once wrote the lyrics “My chains fell off, my heart was free.” That is how we can feel if we learn to let go and loosen the ties to our old habits and fears.

Experiences from the past colour our thoughts and shape our attitude, and so it is important that we don't try to hold onto those stories which no longer serve us. The ultimate goal is to make use of our memories, not let memories make use of us.
“Loosen the strings, and be free!”
