You have the right to be exactly who you are.

But....
​ Have you ever felt like you're too much?
Too loud. Too sensitive. Too emotional. Too intense.

Or maybe the fear swings the other way—
That you're not enough.
Not doing enough. Not strong enough. Not healing fast enough.

This picture says it perfectly....

​Thank you iamdomfarnan. (In her comments she shares a lot of other great info, if you want to check her out).

This truth has taken me years to learn in my own trauma healing journey:
🌿 These 2 fears - not enough & too much - are really two sides of the same coin.
​ Both carry the same root: the fear of being fully, unapologetically YOU.

This fear doesn’t come out of nowhere. For many of us, (me included), it was woven into our nervous systems when we were told—directly or indirectly—that our presence was a problem.

We learned it was safer to shrink, silence, suppress, or strive.

But something I have also learned....my body, your body....it was never the problem. Your truth, Your needs, your voice, your radiance and mine too—they all deserve space.

And now this truth is being woven into my nervous system. As each new layer of trauma is released, it offers space for my inner wisdom and truth to share what healing offers me now.

💛 One way this happens is through the solar plexus chakra.
​ It’s your energy center of personal power, identity, and self-worth.
​ When trauma or survival patterns dim it, we lose connection to the inner fire that says: I have a right to take up space, find out who I am and act based on the true me.

So how do we begin to heal those solar plexus survival patterns?

Try this simple practice:

1. Place a hand on your upper belly, just beneath your ribs. (A thumb on your sternum if that feels nourishing), And Breathe gently into that space.
2. What do you notice? The weight of your hand, a pulse, the warmth of your hand and belly, (for me - the extra roll of skin there), Your shoulders, Your arms, What else?
3. As you inhale, say silently: I am enough.
4. As you exhale, say: It’s safe to be me.
5. Repeat a few rounds, and then ask your body:
   What does my power feel like now?

Let any sensations or images arise. There’s no wrong answer, impression or sensation. You’re not trying to force anything—just offering your nervous system a safe space to reclaim your right to be you.

You're not too much. You're not too little.
You're you. And that is powerful.
