Let me share with you,
the most nourishing,
three-in-one,
mind, body, and heart wash,
called therapy.
It means attending to
the care of your soul.
It’s like a personalized
skin care routine.
It’s cleansing,
exfoliating,
toning,
moisturizing,
and the key
to a good night sleep.
Talking about your feelings is
basic hygiene.
However, you need
well-trained eyes,
and a spacious presence,
to treat those intergenerational cavities
deeeeep in the back.
Getting a root canal cause
you didn’t go to the dentist
isn’t fun.
Neither is constantly getting triggered
and fighting with your partner.
You can’t preform open
heart surgery on yourself,
and even if you could,
you just shouldn’t,
when there’s a trained expert
out there,
with years of experience.
A hemorrhaging history of
breakups,
cutting remarks,
and years of misattunement
doesn’t clot over night.
Don’t be heroic.
If you’re struggling with your mental health,
ask for help.
It’s okay to ask for help.
Actually,
the most edgy,
revolutionary,
countercultural,
respectable,
responsible,
radical,
traumagical,
bad-ass,
earth-loving thing
you can do
is to ask for help.
So seriously,
if you need help,
don’t wait until your bleeding out,
call someone,
like me,
Noah Eastman,
LMFT.
