Emotional balance doesn’t mean you’re calm all the time. It just means you learn how to sit with your feelings without letting them take over.

When something heavy shows up, pause for a moment. Breathe. Instead of asking “How do I get rid of this?”, try asking “What is this feeling trying to tell me?”

Some days the waves will be strong, other days the water is still. Both are part of you. What matters is trusting that underneath it all, there’s always a place of calm you can return to.

So don’t rush yourself. Take it one breath at a time. That’s how balance is built - gently, slowly, in the middle of real life. 🤍
