Paraphrased a bit from Romans chapter 3 in the Bible.
No wonder toxic shame is so prevalent in our society!!!
The research indicates that kids are more apt to focus on negative versus positive words. If we say something negative about our child and something positive, they will hear and focus on the โbad.โ I canโt remember how many times we need to say something positive to outweigh the negative, but itโs a lot!
This is true for adults as well.

These verses/beliefs can be like an invisible albatross around our necks weighing us down. If you think about how heavy an albatross would be, it could cause neck pain, shoulder, hip & knee pain, back pain, digestion issues, headaches, anxiety, depression, etc.
It can cause even more pain when we donโt know itโs there or donโt realize there is another way to live.
Of course, some people are part of organized religion and have no health issues and it works for them. I say WOOT WOOT for them! โจ โจ โจ
This message is for the people who have tried every remedy known to humankind to try and feel better, but nothing seems to work.
Even if we choose not to participate in religion, the old outdated, painful beliefs can be held deep inside. Causing pain without us even knowing it.
Perhaps itโs time to take the albatross off of your neck and lay it gently aside.

Take the Fโing thing off of your neck and smash it with a big sledgehammer, then stomp on it until it becomes dust.
Using your imagination of course.
๐๐ข๐๐ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ๐: I can say Fโing because I have a t-shirt that says Iโm an F-bomb mom, compliments of my daughter. In my defense, it was the brutal battle with depression in January 2020 when that word started flying from my mouth left and right!
Of course, if we have those beliefs stuck in our heart, mind, and body, itโs not a one and done thing. First, we must recognize when the old, outdated, painful beliefs are affecting us and then make choices that show we no longer choose to participate in the outdated system.
