Harsh, Fierce & Growly

Today’s card is a reminder that you are being judged. And rather harshly at that. I’m going to be controversial today. I’m going to call your judge, your harshest critic out. I’m going to tell you what to say to them to get them to stop.

Now it’s not easy to do. You have to be more than brave. You have to be FIERCE, my darlings. FIERCE, I say. I want you to get your best growly, mean, “I’m a drill sergeant/Dominant/boss” voice on.

Now you need to practice first. Go to your mirror and look yourself in the eye. Don’t look away. Don’t blink. Don’t flinch.

Say (using that FIERCE) voice, “I love you. I love you no matter what. You are a good person. You are a beautiful soul. You are LOVE and I love you. Nothing you can say or do will ever make me think less of you. I see the real you and I love you.”

Say it nine times. That’s a sacred number for a reason. When you are done practicing, admit that you knew all along that this wasn’t a drill. That you knew this was the real thing.

Make a date with your inner critical self to have the conversation every morning until he or she GETS IT.

I love you. I love you no matter what. You are a good person. You are a beautiful soul. You are LOVE and I love you. Nothing you can say or do will ever make me think less of you. I see the real you and I love you.

Seek joy, y’all. Pass it on.

  1. This is powerful! And today happens to be the best possible day for it – full moon! I have some need of reaffirmation so I’m definitely doing this tonight when I’m home from work ๐Ÿ™‚
    Thanks, Arwen!
