What do I already know, but haven’t dared to trust yet?
Gentle Reflection: Trusting What You Already Carry
Sometimes, what we call confusion is actually clarity with no place to land.
Not because the truth is unclear—
but because it might ask us to change, to risk, or to leave behind what once kept us safe.
You already know something.
Maybe not with words. Maybe not with a plan.
But you feel it.
In your chest. In your stomach. In your deep-time self.
The question isn’t what’s true.
The question is:
Can I trust myself enough to let it be true?
Journal Prompts: A Conversation with Inner Knowing
The Knowing I Keep Avoiding:
• What’s one quiet truth I’ve been carrying but haven’t spoken out loud?
• What might shift if I acknowledged it without needing to act on it—just yet?Fear vs. Resistance:
• What am I afraid will happen if I trust this knowing?
• Are those fears based on past experience… or someone else’s voice?Evidence of Trust:
• When have I trusted a knowing before?
• What happened?
• What did I learn about myself from that experience?
Grounding Activity: Permission Slip to Self
Time Needed: ~10 minutes
Materials: Pen, paper, and a quiet space
1. Begin with your breath.
Take 3 slow inhales. Let your body soften.
2. Write this at the top of a blank page:
“I give myself permission to trust…”
3. Complete the sentence 3–5 times.
Let your hand lead before your mind catches up. Don’t overthink.
4. Close the practice with this sentence:
“I am allowed to know what I know.”
Tuck the page somewhere sacred—or read it aloud to yourself.

A gentle audio track will be added soon to hold space for this moment.
Let it meet you in the silence between knowing and action.
Closing Thought:
Not all truths arrive with trumpets.
Some slip in quietly and wait for you to notice.
Your only job is not to rush.
Just to listen.
And when you’re ready—
to believe yourself.
