Thanks Brad. It’s hard to take a bad picture of trees this time of year. And it’s not hard to find an inner part that could benefit from some nurturing.
This hit me right in the healing space. I love everything about this offering and feel grounded now in an understanding of the roots of self-sabotage, and the way I spiral whenever I make what I perceive to be a "mistake" - your ability to write with simplicity and clarity and use these kinds of examples is a gift. Thank you!
Great ideas. On my Ancestors Altar is a photo of myself at age 4 in a purple dress I wore on an Easter Day long ago...Springing forth in the blossoming of my co creation with the season of Spring!
Thanks for another great read Pamela. I loved meeting your adorable younger selves. How painful but masterful to adapt ourselves to fit in. Then to be courageous compassionate and generous re jigging the relationship with ourselves and our caregivers. I find doing this work keeps the wheels of life especially my own oiled and turning more easily. I check in often with my younger selves, see what they might need and no longer blame my caregivers. My younger selves love the attention, warmth and love free of resentment. They appreciate being re-parented. We’re all much happier.
Really good insight on how we can nurture those parts of ourselves that were hurt and-or had to become smaller to appease others.
Great pictures of your trees.

I love this image I now have of 4 year old, purple clad you. 🤩
