How many times have you said to yourself, “I don’t want to lose control.” If you’re saying it, you may already be halfway there. Halfway to your Drama Queen Brat. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Take another deep breath. Open your eyes and do what needs to be done. That’s taking control in a good way. “Control” can be a very bad thing. It also can be the best thing that ever happened to you. When you’re Drama Queen Brat is a ranting and a raving, wallowing and a stewin,’ that’s bad. When you let your Bitch take over and push her away, that’s good. Here’s how you start going for the good:
1. Take care of yourself. Health, mind, body, and soul.
2. You make time for fun. Always.
3. You know how to release frustration and anger. So you don’t let that emotion control you.
When you take these steps, over time, you start to see things more clearly. The more you release your anger and frustration, the more relaxed you become. Relaxation helps you start seeing what you truly love and truly don’t. You gravitate toward the good because the Drama ain’t noooo fun. When you have to deal with drama…and you will, you’re calmer. Or you know what to do to dissipate negative emotions to get you to calm action quicker. See why I’m always harpin’ ’bout you taking care of yourself? That’s the bottom line. That’s the seed you’re planting for your Bitch to grow. Just like a plant. You need to nurture, feed, and provide the right environment for YOU to grow and blossom. Yes, it’s an over used cliche,’ but it’s also the perfect one.
So what kind of flower are you, honey? What is your favorite fertilizer, type of water? If you could sit anywhere, where would it be? What pisses you off and makes you shrivel and dry up? What pisses you off and makes you shrivel and dry up? I’m repeating that because it’s so important. What keeps you from your vitality? Know these answers better than anyone. Then you can take control by taking action to do that which brings you to life! You’re sassy, sexy, witty…force of nature.
Love, Goddess
