Tears are welcome here right in our culture it's like as soon as we start crying it's. Like oh I got to figure out a way to like cut this off. And move on to the next thing right I encourage you to just stay with these feelings. Right there's no expectation here to be like uhoh hand her the tissue stop crying. Because I believe that crying is when it's when it's devoid of judgment. When it's devoid of Shame it's a release so absolutely letting yourself feel this. Is okay.

Crying, when it is devoid of self-judgment and shame, is a healthy release.

When we can be present with ourselves and allow the tears to flow, it helps our pain to move.

It is like cleansing the wound and allowing it to heal.

"Tears are antifreeze for the soul."
