“If you correct your mind, the rest of your life will fall into place”
-Lao Tzu
Sophrosyne σωφροσύνη, is an ancient Greek concept of an ideal of excellence of character and soundness of mind, which when combined in one well-balanced individual leads to other qualities, such as temperence, moderation, prudence, purity, and self-control.
I wanted to get this post up because I wanted to tell you guys why I named my blog Sophrosyne. Life is all about balance, good judgement and integrity. Theres a lot of times where you feel like you want to give up; or maybe you just simply don’t know where your going with your life and you feel discouraged; (trust me I have been through it all..well not all but pretty damn close) but the thing is is we have to stay positive and keep your head up because God has a plan for everybody. Have you ever been upset about your boyfriend leaving you, or you not getting hired at the job you wanted so badly…these are very small examples on how the universe works. Keep in mind when something doesn’t go as planned, everything and I mean Everything happens for a reason. There is a reason why those things didn’t go as you planned, and that reason being is simple..It was not supposed to happen that way. Theres a frequency to life and you cannot force the universe into changing that plan. If you are clinging to anything you are resisting against the natural flow of who you are as a person. Theres this article my mother showed me years ago called “retraining the brain”. Retraining the brain to think positive and to let things flow, once you let go of the stress and over thinking, the universe will take over and guide you to where you need to be. Always keep your mind and your heart open, and remember you can do and have whatever it is that you want..all you have to do is imagine you already have it. There is a whole science behind this, and i highly recommend everyone to do more research on it. It is called the Law of Attraction. They have so many amazing books, movies, youtube videos on this topic and has not only changed my life but it has changed a huge portion of the world. Below I will link some of my favorite books and youtube videos based off of this topic. I know how it feels to be discouraged or in a dark place where you feel like there is no way out so if this could help even just one person that would mean a lot to me. I created this blog as a platform for my work but I also want to be very transparent with you guys. Anyone that knows me knows I am an open book. I have been through a lot in every aspect and I would love to be able to help anyone going through dark times or even if you need someone to open up too as anonymous. My email is linked in my bio always feel free if you need some advice or encouragement.
