?? AFFIRM ??

Dear Leentje,

I see you. You feel ashamed, frustrated, disgusted, guilty, unloved and unseen. How awful and unfair. This is old pain. You are safe. Your genetics and your childhood traumas are not your fault. You don’t deserve to be punished. I see your efforts to heal. You work hard. I am proud of you. I communicate your needs, emotions and boundaries, if necessary with the help of others. We cannot control how people respond. I respect you. How they respond is not your fault. You don’t have to be perfect. I accept you. Believe: you can handle whatever comes your way. You got this. I believe in you. I like your eyebrows. They are beautiful. You are of value the way you are. Open up: Look for and focus on proof that people – including me – are trustworthy. I protect you. Receive love, acceptance and attention. You belong. I love you unconditionally.

Much love,

Loreen
