Although it may sound uncomfortable and difficult to confront, we largely choose our lives and circumstances.
We choose our relationships.
We choose our friends.
We choose the quality of our relationships.
We choose the homes we live in.
We choose whether we are rich or poor.
The power to choose is the birthplace of freedom. No matter what life throws our way, we always have the choice as to how we respond. You can choose your attitude. You can choose your next step.
Even when circumstances seem immovable, your inner world is still yours. This isn’t a small thing – it’s everything.
In wellness, transformation begins the moment we choose to tune in; to slow down. To listen to what our body, heart and spirit are asking for. Do we nourish or do we neglect? Push or pause? Speak kindly or critically?
Each choice is a fork in the road.
Healing doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when we choose, moment by moment, to come back to ourselves with gentleness, courage and truth.
Many people feel stuck – they forget… they have choices. The truth is, you’re not able to change your past, but you can always change your next step. That’s where your power lives – in the next breath, the next decision, the next ‘yes,’ or ‘no.
You are the author of your life – the sculptor of your becoming.
Ask yourself
- What am I choosing today – consciously or unconsciously?
- Are my choices aligned with the life I want to live?
- What is one small choice I can make today that honours my well-being?
Ultimately, choice is a sacred act.
