Valerie Bertinelli Instagram – 💕 I’m reflecting on Day 30 of #DryJanuary and all the feelings that came up. 🤔 It’s human nature; I get it; we’d rather not suffer the pain of facing the traumatic experiences or buried emotions that can hold us back. But I can tell you from experience that the growth in emotional intelligence that results from confronting these issues head-on with a clear head is nothing short of transformational. It takes an enormous amount of courage. 💪🏻 Self-love requires the bravery to go within and face potential discomfort, but the rewards are invaluable in terms of personal development and enhanced self-actualization. 🏆 When we push these feelings away, they have a way of sneaking back into our lives and causing suffering. But if we face them with kindness and care, we can find resolution and rest. With our little community here on social, we can support each other, learn to love ourselves, and have the strength to deal with our feelings. You’ll be grateful to your future self. 🥰 #SelfLove #Courage
