This isn’t just healing—it’s a reclamation. Of your energy. Your voice. Your worth.

Takeaways
You're tired from carrying things you were never meant to hold.
Resentment is unspoken grief for every moment you abandoned yourself.
We normalize resentment by dressing it up as selflessness.
Resentment is a sacred messenger saying you've abandoned yourself.
Your body and nervous system are done when you keep saying yes out of obligation.
Resentment can be reframed as an opportunity to reclaim your energy.
Accountability is a spiritual law of life and co-creation.
You can't be in your business and somebody else's business at the same time.
You deserve to live a life that doesn't make you bitter.
Ask yourself where you've been quietly resenting others because you keep abandoning yourself.
✍️ Try This: Resentment Release Ritual
Grab a journal or scrap paper (yes, that old envelope will do) and write:
- Who or what am I resenting right now?
- Where in my body do I feel this weight?
- What have I not allowed myself to say?
Then read it out loud. No censoring. No spiritual fluff. Just truth.
Now speak this over your body:
“I release the weight that was never mine to carry.”
“I forgive myself for staying silent.”
“I reclaim my energy. It belongs to me now.”
Tear it up. Burn it. Bless it. Let it go.
