\nPowerful Quotes by Mel
\n\u25cf Ego is a false sense of self about how you think you\u2019re perceived or who you think you are.
\n\u25cf Your limiting beliefs aren\u2019t who you really are. You\u2019re just conditioned to believe it.
\n\u25cf At the end of the day, real happiness comes from within. Know that you can have those moments of happiness and moments of anger while knowing that, within you, you\u2019re still safe and whole. Who\u2019s to know if what you\u2019re feeling is really real? All you really have is yourself.
\n\u25cf I always ask myself, \u201cIs this serving me, or draining me?\u201d
\n\u25cf It\u2019s an illusion to think that we can control what happens around us. We can only really control ourselves.
\n\u25cf Heal your trauma, heal your nervous system. Heal your nervous system, heal your emotional body. Heal your emotional body, heal your energy body. Heal your energy body, raise your vibration.
\n\u25cf Love is the only thing that\u2019s real. Love has the power to dissolve all that tries to oppose it. Love wins.
\n\u25cf We choose our own reality.
