From 'FEMME TOTALe' with ivana Miličević

“‘Being’ well, doesn’t necessarily mean ‘feeling’ well all the time, like the difference between happiness and contentment. We want to go for something sustainable, not chase a shiny cure. As a graduate of much therapy, I can attest to a frustration with the concept of ‘self-love.’ For so many years I was like, ‘Hmm, that sounds awesome, but how?’ It seemed like a science fiction to get to self-love from the places I’d been. I spent years just working to attain a neutral relationship with myself just like, ‘I’m here. I’m safe.’ If some days you can only attain beingness, rather than ‘wellness,’ that’s perfectly fine.”
