What happy looks like

It's been a long time now since I've started questioning myself whether I'm happy or not. Being a Gen Y I've been raised striving to have it all as a way to be happy.

The hard way I came to realize that being happy doesn't necesserily comes with social and career success. I have an amazing circle of friends, great career (achieved in super short time) and a great daughter I'm so proud of. None of those has magically brought happiness in my life. I've been still doubting myself and felt if I failed in life. This inner stress I created myself has been a burden. I couldn't figure out how come I'm not happy. I seem to have everything it takes to be happy.

Through my cranio-sacral therapy I came to realize that happiness doesn't come by "success in life". One might say "Hey, no rocket science there" and I'd probably agree. But yet, here I am trying to connect back with myself. My happy is when I am at peace with me and the decisions I made. My happy is when I am back stronger - mentally and physically, to live the life I deserve.

Being diagnosed with a chronical disease and living under constant stress at work and home was an eye-opener for me. Not recovering as planned was the moment where I've decided I need help and I need change. I needed to change the "speed" in which I was going, to slow down and find my inner strength and peace.

During cranio session the other day I did the first small step to overcome external distraction and not allow it to take me out of my inner balance. I'll be practicing this going forward to support my journey to inner peace and balance. A strength I truly believe will help me change the things I'd like to change to achieve peace and happiness.

"If you turn inward, you will find a space where there is a solution for everything" Sadhguru says. Today I feel liberated, by taking small steps inward and connecting with my core. A small step into understanding what I need to nurture to be happy. And let me tell you, I feel happier and clamer today than I did in a long time.
