Emotional Stability
Our lives are full of emotions and when we pay attention, we quickly see that those emotions are ever-changing and fluid. That is a powerful awareness to have.

This could be anything from trying a new therapy, stopping a medication or taking the time to engage in nurturing self-care. While having input and support is invaluable, it often helpful to recall that your life is ultimately your own. Check in with yourself and your reasons.
