Choose You | Spoken Blog

2/27 Edited to

... Read moreChoosing yourself is one of the most profound decisions you can make on your journey toward self-love and confidence. It means recognizing your worth and giving priority to your needs, dreams, and emotional health. From personal experience, embracing this mindset has allowed me to build healthier relationships and improve my overall happiness. When you choose yourself, you nurture self-respect and set boundaries that protect your mental well-being. This practice is not selfish; rather, it's essential for sustaining balance in life. I found that regularly reflecting on what truly matters to me and declining situations that drain my energy helps maintain my focus on personal growth. Additionally, choosing yourself empowers you to pursue passions and goals that align with your authentic self. It frees you from societal pressures to conform and encourages you to embrace your unique journey. I often remind myself that my path doesn't need to mirror others' expectations to be valuable. In moments of doubt, affirming that "I choose me" reinforces resilience and motivation. It’s a daily practice that fosters inner peace and self-compassion. By sharing these reflections, I hope to inspire others to appreciate their intrinsic value and embark on their own self-love journey.

A book cover titled "MOJO WORKIN': The Old African American Hoodoo System" by Katrina Hazzard-Donald. It displays illustrations of Hoodoo-related items such as bath salts, oils, "Paket Kongo" objects, and a cassette tape, along with prices and promotional text like "Come See Me Your Spiritual Supplies."
A Spoken Practice
Hoodoo is very much a spoken practice so if you did not grow up in a practicing household it can be quite challenging to learn on your own. But AJ (my name), there are plenty of books out here on Hoodoo. Sure there are, there are also plenty of translations of the Bible and fiction novels as well.
