Going Inside, Finding My Truth

I know it, I can feel it now. I used to live in my head for too long. Inside my head, I created this beautiful place where I could go whenever I felt threatened, hurt or misunderstood, leaving everything else outside because I didnt want to feel it. What I didnt know then is that by hiding from my feelings and emotions, I've lost the connection with my body unable to feel anything. The connection with mind and body was severed. Life has a great teaching lesson and it is that nothing is permanent , everything has an end. There was so much my body could take and the mind could hold that inevitably something had to give. My mind was overloaded with problems, my body at breaking point. All it took was my willingness to allow myself to feel those emotions and vacate my mind and take residence inside my heart. The circumstances that got me there came as a blessing in disguise. I now trust more how I feel than what I think as the mind is a trickster into self sabotage but the body knows, my heart knows now my truth that my mind didnt want to accept.
