Perhaps it means feeling less weighed down by worry.
Perhaps it means understanding your emotions, finding new ways to relate to past experiences, or giving yourself permission to enjoy being creative.
Perhaps it means becoming more hopeful about the future and feeling more confident in the choices you make.
Whatever a happier life means to you, you deserve the opportunity to explore it. You cannot always change what has happened, but you can explore how you relate to your experiences and what you want to nurture in your life moving forward.
Your journey matters. Your wellbeing matters. And every small step counts.
