When thoughts creep in

Amen. I am totally experiencing this full on this morning. I woke up feeling good and able to do my normal morning routine of prayer, personal spiritual study, exercise and self care, then suddenly as it seemed I was allowing thoughts to come in, this resistance if you will, that just seemed to consume every thought and feeling, the thoughts that could easily just pass by any other day, today however it consumed me and I decided to understand where it was coming from and the feeling it was causing. I learned that I felt as though some of my old tendencies for perfectionism were creeping in with little things in a matter of a couple minutes. I was criticizing myself and what I observed around me, I began being really negative and feeling nauseous (not just because I’m pregnant either) I continued to observe and find out more which brought me to other feelings like overwhelm, exhaustion, emotionally tired, and sick. I took a new approach today then I would ever have in the past and that is to have compassion on myself, figure out what I want to feel instead and allow a new sense of things making to take place. Wow what a difference a few steps can make in my process of change and overcoming thoughts. I am enough. I am a strong worthy woman capable of greatness. I am loving and understanding of myself and have patience and compassion on me. I live me and I am worthy of this love. What comes to your mind that stops you in your tracks and consumes you?
