Family inheritance….

I just wanted to share this piece of poetry…

We all pick up habit patterns, physical/mental or emotional from those we spent a lot of time with: especially our parents, as they were the ones we spent so much time with in our formulation years (usually). You could also say society, as we spend even more time in relationship with it, then we do/have with our parents. In order to become an empowered human being, though, it’s important to recognise that once we become adults, it’s up to us to recognise those habits and decide if they’re benefiting us, and if not, to let them go.

This is a short piece by Lily Meyers in New York, women, men, society, food, family, bodies and that which we hand down and that which we pick up…

Enjoy.
