Hello, you!

Sometimes we do not celebrate ourselves because we are too busy thinking of what could possibly go wrong, which sends us into a spiral which leaves us feeling frozen.

So, we protect ourselves by withholding joy from ourselves, because our fear tells us that if we celebrate, we will lose what we have.

We then end up living a life where we do not fully bathe in the joy of our achievements because what if someone takes them away from us?

The idea of celebrating ourselves sounds uncomfortable since we have trained ourselves to be more prepared to deal with pain than with joy.

So, we never quite relax because we are always waiting for the other shoe to drop.

The truth is, not celebrating yourself because you fear losing what you have won’t help you gain more or protect you from pain.

Life will keep on happening no matter what.

You have very little control over that.

So, what if you gave yourself permission to feel so good about your wonderful achievements that you celebrate yourself intentionally and consistently, no matter what?

 It's time to let go of the need to always wait for the next disaster.

I know what it’s like to be in that awful space and had to rely on the guidance of my ancestors to learn to celebrate myself.

If you resonate with this and want a safe space to talk, you can DM me.

I am also available if you'd like to book a sangoma/ shaman reading to connect with your ancestors to get guidance on how to celebrate yourself. You can book here.

Wishing you an amazing weekend.

Love,

Gogo Pabi
