I’ve read many times about the benefit of speaking to ourselves while looking at a mirror. I have never connected to that exercise until this section, “In the mirror, I tell her she is beautiful. Truly beautiful. Because, in the mirror, I see how whole she is. How healed, how hurt, how loving, how loved, how strong, how vulnerable, how brave, how afraid, how confused, how concerned and how joyful.” I finally recognized the woman saying these words to me. What a tremendous blessing. Thank you for sharing this archived piece.
