Physician moms, you don’t have to listen to the toxic positivity crap that society feeds us. The truth is that sometimes in our jobs and personal lives, bad shit happens. I got cancer.

These things are real and it is NOT okay to force yourself into some Pollyanna mindset of happiness around them. But feeling those hard feelings is painful. I can help you process your emotions and make plans on how to cope when these situations come. Don’t suppress your feelings anymore. Pain is unavoidable—but suffering IS optional! Let’s talk and make a plan to help you handle hard shit when it happens. I know it is real and I help you come up with ways through what you experience without faking it. https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages/86596 Schedule a free call with me and let’s get started! #lifeis5050 #lifegivesyoulemons #embrace #Embracethesuck #feelthefeelings #workingmom #workingmomburnout #lifeishard #medicineishard #physicianmom #burnout #momburnout #wegetsick #badthingshappen #itsoknottobeok #coaching #lifecoaching #adversitycoach #adversity #cursingmom #cursing #processemotion #emotions #thoughts #sufferingisoptional

How much do you suffer? Why? What are you willing to change, to escape this suffering? Do you want to suffer the pain of ignorance and safety or enjoy the pain of change? ✨ The pain of repression. Or the freedom of expression. 🔥 Be a rebel who starts an inner rebellion, an inner revolution. Who is courageous enough for change beyond the wildest dreams. Be brave. Be ready.

Hey Universal fam, let's talk about a topic that's been on my mind a lot lately - suffering. 💭💔 I used to believe that suffering was inevitable, that it was just a part of life that we all had to endure. But I've come to realize that suffering is actually a choice. That's right, a choice. 🙌 We have the power to choose how we react to the challenges and hardships that come our way. We can choose to let them consume us, drag us down, and hold us back. Or we can choose to rise above them, learn from them, and grow stronger because of them. 💪 It's all about mindset, perspective, and resilience. It's about choosing to see the silver lining in every dark cloud, to find the lessons in every setback, and to turn our pain into power. ✨ So next time life throws you a curveball, remember that you have a choice. Choose to keep going #suffering #sufferingisoptional #sufferingisachoice #powerofchoice #powertochoose #consume #dragusdown #holdusback #mindset #perspective #resilience #silverlining #darkclouds #setback #turnpainintopower #SelfLove #Mindfulness #Balance #Success #BreakTheCycle #whispersofwisdom #mystic #spiritualalchemist #rosebudbeijaflor

Spring has sprung (back to winter) It was 70 degrees during my bike ride on Saturday, and it was 30 degrees and snowing yesterday morning My feet got wet and cold on my little adventure up American Fork canyon, I stepped out of my car into about 4 inches of slushy water... Pain (or in this case, cold) is inevitable Suffering is optional. Suffering happens when you think the pain (or the cold) shouldn't happen... The journey is the destination... breathe it in... #sufferingisoptional #thejourneyisthedestination #springinutah #mentalhealth

⁣ 🔸If you were abused, abandoned, rejected, neglected or have experienced physical/mental trauma at a young age, chances are that this wounded inner child may show up later in life and demand acceptance, safety and seek external validation in almost every situation in your life.⁣ ⁣ 🔸Healing this wounded inner child helps us to look back on early wounds without judgment, where we validate the hurt, pain and suffering and resolve from subconscious level. However, when we avoid addressing our past hurts and feel alone with them, they transform into destructive behaviours which not only impact ourselves but also to our environment. Not addressing them could make us overworked, addicted, abusive, racist, and codependent.⁣ ⁣ 👉🏼Remember: When we heal the inner child, we heal generations that follow.⁣ ⁣ 💜 I offer Inner Child Healing Bundle that includes: Heart-wall removal, generational trauma cleansing and targeted Childhood wounds clearing via Emotion and Body Code and extensive PSYCH-K Balances. ⁣ ⁣ 👉🏼So make yourself a priority and get rid of your harmful past experiences that are impacting your present and reconnect with innocent joy & excitement we feel as a child💜⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Follow @uroojkazmihealing for more details. ⁣ ⁣ #innerchildhealing #innerchild #innerchildwork #innerchildtherapy #innerpeace #divinelightheals #sufferingisoptional #emotionalwellbeing #emotionalhealthmatters #emotionallyunavailable #emotionalhealing #subconciousmind #mindsetiseverything #psychk® #psychk #emotioncodepractitioner #spirtualawakening #healthylifestyle #mindbodysoul #healthpsychology #youmatter #recoveryispossible #selfhealingjourney #transformyourmind #shadowwork #loveyourself #bekindtoyourself #uroojkazmihealing

💚💜💚💜💚💜💚 Suffering is optional… We’re meant to feel it you know? We’re meant to feel all of it. Though we should not suffer in it. I always say this to my clients... “without pain there is no pleasure. Without darkness, there is no light. And without hate, there will be no love.” We can’t have one without the other. The difference is knowing that we all have the space and choice on how we respond to either. We have choices, to feel it, see it, accept it and choose to move from it. Which then lies ahead our growth and freedom. 💚💜💚💜💚💜 Pain is not weakness, it’s strength. Pain is inevitable. It’s apart of our lives. Pain is self awareness and to those who think otherwise, I wonder - are you in touch with your reality? Can you change your emotional response to pain to the extent of the need of not suffering? And in then our experience of pain would you be then more likely to have an experience of growth? I wonder, wonder, wonder...

All you get to do is decide whether to keep it or disassemble what you cannot control. ...a lacmus paper for own weakness..

🌟 Pain is Inevitable. Suffering is Optional. 🌟📸 Pain touches all of us at some point, an unavoidable part of the human experience. Whether physical, emotional, or spiritual, it challenges us, pushes us, and demands to be felt. While pain is a given, suffering is often how we respond to that pain. It's the story we tell ourselves about what the pain means. We have the power to shape that narrative, to choose resilience over despair.✨ By accepting pain as an inevitable part of life but refusing to let it dominate our lives, we open up a space for healing and growth. This approach doesn't minimize the pain but empowers us to not let it define our entire existence.🌿 Each day, we have the choice to face our challenges with a mindset that seeks meaning and lessons, rather than one that cultivates suffering. This isn't about denying the pain but transforming our relationship with it. What's one pain in your life that you've transformed into a learning or growth opportunity? Share your story in the comments or post with #PainToPower. Let’s inspire each other to see pain through a different lens. 🙏 #MindsetShift #Resilience #GrowthMindset #PainIsInevitable #SufferingIsOptional #HealingJourney #Empowerment #CommunitySupport #AddictionRecovery #

Contemplate this truth: 'He suffers more than necessary, who suffers before it is necessary.' ⁣ ⁣ In these words lies a profound lesson on the nature of suffering. Often, we find ourselves burdened by anticipation, worrying about potential hardships that may never come to pass. By allowing ourselves to be consumed by preemptive suffering, we needlessly amplify our pain. Let us strive to embrace the present moment, facing challenges as they arise, and sparing ourselves the additional anguish of anticipating future trials.⁣ ⁣ #TheMillennialStoic #StoicismDaily #StoicPhilosophy

✨ Part of showing up differently is accepting that difficult moments and emotions will always be a part of life.

In the vast tapestry of human experience, suffering often appears as an inevitable thread, woven into the fabric of our lives. However, amidst the challenges and tribulations we face, lies a profound truth: suffering is optional. This concept, though initially daunting, holds the key to liberation and empowerment. Suffering, in its essence, arises not from external circumstances, but from our internal reactions to them. While pain is an unavoidable aspect of life, our response to it determines whether suffering takes root within us. This realization forms the cornerstone of resilience and inner peace. To embrace the idea that suffering is optional is to reclaim agency over our lives. It is a conscious choice to cultivate a mindset of acceptance, detachment, and gratitude. Through mindfulness practices, we can observe our thoughts and emotions without being consumed by them, thus transcending the grip of suffering. Moreover, reframing challenges as opportunities for growth empowers us to navigate adversity with grace and resilience. By shifting our perspective from victimhood to empowerment, we reclaim our innate capacity to transform suffering into strength. In essence, embracing the notion that suffering is optional is an act of profound self-love and liberation. It invites us to transcend the limitations of our conditioning and awaken to the boundless potential within us. In choosing freedom over suffering, we embark on a journey of profound self-discovery and transformation. #choosefreedoom #mindfullivingcoach #innerpeacequotes #Optimis #selfempowermentcoach #Resilience #GrowthMindset #PositiveOutlook #selfdiscoverycoach #Transformation #sufferingisoptional

Can you love, understand, and accept yourself no matter what happens in life? Oftentimes, we hold such deep grievances against ourselves. That we should've known better, been better, and done better when it comes to the matters in our lives, particularly the challenging ones. We harbor disappointment, resentment, and anger we stuff away so deeply just to cope with life, yet we do not understand why we feel stuck, immobilized, and unable to move or progress forward. This is due to the belief that if we just had done or known better, things would be different and we get stuck in that loop, not accepting where we are now. When we cannot accept what is, how can one move forward? What good does it do to loop that thought of "what if"? We cannot change the past. We can however acknowledge that any choice made was the best available choice at the time, even if we know better now. Because back then, we didn't know what we know now. This means you are allowed to give yourself grace and let yourself off the hook. It was ok, no matter what transpired since then. Instead of looking at the negatives find the positives of what it may have taught you. You may now know of other choices available to you that you didn't know then, that's growth right there. From where you are standing now you have a different perspective, that's growth. Look ahead with your newfound awareness and know you are not judged for past "mistakes" or any mistakes that you too will make moving forward, you're human after all. And that's the thing, all of it is part of our own evolution. Allow it, welcome it, embrace it, and love yourself through it all. ❤️ #unconditionallove #perception #amillionfacets #changingthenarrative #acceptyourself #acceptanceisthekey #nojudgement #liberateyourself #youareworthy #awarenessofself #releaseblocks #onlyexperiences #peacewithin #onlylearning #noshame #noguilt #themagicoflife #awakeningconsciousness #youmatter #human #sufferingisoptional #higherselfwisdom #lawofpolarity #balance #Experiences #TheBiggerPicture #asabovesobelow #selfacceptance #youaremagnificent #lawofattraction

- If suffering is a choice, then how can you choose not to let it in your life? 👩‍👧‍👦 As a mother and a wife, life has thrown its fair share of challenges my way. There have been moments of pain, the loss of a loved one, illness, disappointment. But through it all, I've come to realize something important: even when pain comes knocking at my door, I have the power to decide whether I let it in. 🔥 I see pain like a guest that arrives uninvited, disrupting the peace and harmony of our lives. But suffering, that's a different story altogether. Suffering is what happens when we cling to pain, when we let the pain linger, focus on it and let it define us. 🧘‍♀️But here's the thing: I've learned that suffering is optional. It's a choice we make, whether consciously or not. I've come to understand that choosing not to suffer doesn't mean ignoring or denying the pain. It means acknowledging the pain, learning from it, and then letting it go. It means focusing on the moments of love, laughter, and connection that make life worth living. 🙏 So yes, pain may be a part of our journey, but suffering? That's something I chose to leave behind as I embrace the resilience that lies within me. ✨ Have you ever caught yourself replaying past hurts in your mind?

When we shift our minds, we can move our feelings and change our choices. Being an adult doesn't mean we always have to choose what you don't like to do. Life is to live vibrantly. Don't forget to play even at work and take on challenges with joy. I'm experiencing the stress from choosing something challenging that is not fun at this moment. So, it's a good reminder to widen my perspective and shift my mind to play. *** Suffering I'm talking about here is continuous pain we put ourselves through from telling the story in our mind to relive it over and over again. If we don't change the narrative, we suffer in the present moment and keep living in the past. If it's something you can't seem to process by yourself, please get in touch with mental care professionals who could support you. #sufferingisoptional #lifeistolive #playisessential #selfdevelopment #resilliencecoaching

Nobody gets through life without bearing their cross The only way to be here joyfully is to be grateful for the cross you’ve been given to bear The only way you don’t make it to the promised land is to give up You have to know that suffering is the path to enlightenment The lessons we refuse to learn will be sent back to us in the forms of experiences or people over and over until the universe feels we have truly listened and understood I was living an unauthentic life. Full of stress and disconnection from myself for many years. I pushed through the warning signs, the messages from my body, the feeling of my broken heart. For money, to meet expectations from my community and family, for status and materialism It got so bad I wouldn’t sleep, I would go home from work and pace around my house for hours. I would destroy my body physically in the gym after working all day everyday and being exhausted. I would have constant conflict and arguments with family, strangers and myself. I would self medicate. Always to suppress my feelings and distract myself from my unhappiness I got to the point, I would sit at my desk and say it out loud ‘I can’t do this anymore’ and ‘ I’m so miserable I’m going to have a nervous breakdown’. Then I continued to push and ignore furthering the damage I was doing to my body and mind The universe gives you what you ask for. I was asking for a change and not acting on it. I was begging for relief from my stress. I was never going to make the right choices and so the universe put me in a wheelchair. It literally forced me to be still, and to change every single part of me A man with health wants everything. A man without health wants only one thing I surrender, and I trust. And, although I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. I shall fear no evil. For thou art with me #thewaybackhome #sufferingisoptional #fluoroquinolonetoxicity #floxed #faithoverfear

The “bigger” person is the one with boundaries, the one who recognizes there is nothing to gain from being mistreated. Nothing. Martyrdom has no payoff. Long suffering offers no reward.
