💋 AFFIRM 💋

Dear Leentje,

I see you. You feel disgusted, angry, unseen, fearful and powerless. How discouraging, annoiying and unfair. This is old pain. I will communicate your needs to be safe and autonomous, your boundaries and your emotions, if necessary with the help of others. You are worth standing up for. Your life matters. We cannot control how people respond. How they respond is not your fault. You don’t deserve punishment. I respect you. I love you unconditionally, eternally. Believe: you can handle whatever comes your way. You got this. I believe in you. Open up: look for and focus on proof that people – including me – are trustworthy. You are safe. Stay. Connect. You are of value the way you are. Receive love, acceptance and attention. You belong.

Much love,

Loreen
