theangrytherapist:
I’ve been struggling a lot with acceptance lately, the inability to swallow where I am in my life and be grateful for everything that is now. I am so tired of chasing. It’s an exhausting process that leaves me powerless and alone, trapped in the same dark hole I try to pull my clients out of…

Don't Go Back To Sleep - Rumi
crushedfingers:
The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you; Don’t go back to sleep. You must ask for what you really want; Don’t go back to sleep. People are going back and forth between the door sill where the two worlds touch. The door is round and open. Don’t go back to sleep.

THE ANGRY THERAPIST: Predator / Prey →
theangrytherapist:
As I coach more and more people with their relationships, I see similar patterns. Different people but the same dysfunction, caught in the same vicious cycle where they are powerless and sometimes even lose control of their lives. One of the predominant patterns I see is this Predator / Prey thing…
Again, I think this would probably apply to more than just romantic...

ramshackleglam:
The moment I spotted this picture of an avocado salad tucked into a hollowed-out apple, I knew I had to try making it myself immediately…and often. First, because I love every single thing in this dish (apples, avocados, pomegranates, and blue cheese), and second, because few…
