Brene Brown's SECRET To Healing YOURSELF & MAKING AN IMPACT ON THE WORLD! | Lewis Howes

"True belonging never asks us to change who we are. It demands us that we BE who we are." Hit me like a truck.

It all comes back to Self. I’m single and spend most of my time alone and I love it! and am never lonely. However I’ve felt in the past experience severe isolation and depression when I felt separated from Spirit. To me it’s finding the God/Spirit in Self which IS bigger than anything! And more true and aligned to you than any group or pose. It’s God. And nothing can replace that, no relationship, family, job or hobbie... 💜

" I belong everywhere I go, no matter where it is or who I'm with, as long as I never betray myself. And the minute I become who you want me to be, in order to fit in and make people like me, is the moment I no longer belong anywhere." So very powerful, words of wisdom 🌟 Thank you Brené Brown 💛

"Everything in life is easier when you don't concern yourself with what other people are doing." The chances of you seeing this comment is pretty low, but if you did, I hope you have an amazing day. 🖤

I grew up in a home without emotional safety & it's still affecting me. How amazing to have a home like Brene has created

Greatness is built when nobody else is watching. I don't know which stage of life you are in but I hope you never give up... 💥

The courage to stand alone and belong to yourself above all else.

I think it has to do tribal beginnings...I have finally taken myself out of hiding ,shook it off and claimed my power. 74 yrs old. Better late than never ❤️

“In the absence of love and belonging there is always suffering.” - Breñe Brown Spot on!

I lost myself for so long trying to be someone else for my, then, Partner of 5 years. Who I thought HE wanted me to be. I've been using the last 18 months since I walked away, learning to love and accept I really am, and it has been a hard path, but the right one xxx

I love hearing the difference between fitting in and belonging!

I have come to believe that true belonging comes from the realization that the bottom line is that we are all alone. No one is going to save us from this life. In our very hardest moments, we will find ourselves alone. No one is going to save us. We go into death alone. We belong only to ourselves and to the Spirit of this world.

Love this - standing for the life you want, instead of standing against the stuff you fear/dislike/whatever. Empowerment is more powerful than rebellion.

The blueprint for me is knowing who I am in Christ. It’s not about me standing alone or me fitting in, it’s me standing in Christ- and from there I am i am in peace. I am truly free from the sting of the opinions of others as a result of being a child of God! It is for freedom that Christ set us free and I’m forever grateful! Wish I would have understood this early on! 💕😇

Omg I never thought about the distinction between “fitting in” and “belonging”. But it makes so much sense! To “fit in” implies that there is a container.

The fact that she’s trying to figure things out just blows my mind and it puts me at ease that I don’t need to feel like I’m in control.

When you feel alone or lonely, means somewhere you think or feel something is missing. The true optimal connection with yourself is missing. When you are connected with yourself and in the present moment, the only moment that exist you are fulfilled in that moment because your attention is on you in the present moment. In the present moment you are feeling your body, senses and the world outside of you reflects the inside of you. When you can fill yourself up with so much love for yourself, you attract all the love in the world. Why? Because you are giving it to yourself.. feeling lonely or alone isn’t bad, you may feel this so you can heal from it. Just feel the feeling without hanging a new thought on the feeling. How you do this is put your awareness on the feeling, focus on the feeling. Feel what the feeling does, how it feels, does it mime or does it stay on one spot in your body. Stay present with that feeling till it moves away and flow trough your body. You don’t hold the feeling than and you heal from the feeling because you don’t hang another thought on the feeling. The suffering people do is the suffering of the thoughts in their mind.. ones you know how to control your thoughts, by being truly present and fill your mind up attentional with positive thoughts you get a master mind and you controle your own life, mind, feelings and emotions.. doesn’t mean that you don’t feel, because you are ment to feel and experience everything! Means you let your feelings go trough your body and you don’t hold them in your body anymore. You let them flow! Energy flows and you are here on earth to experience and feel that is what life means. Only human don’t know how to do that anymore because of the connection with their selves is lost. That’s what the world doesn’t want you to know. When you are connected with yourself you don’t need anything external anymore because you create.

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my YouTube channel 8 months ago about self development. Now I have 778 subs and > 300 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

‘I belong to me.’ So powerful. 🙏🏼❤️
