“Being real is about being true to yourself, being open and honest with others. It doesn't have to be with everyone but with someone or a few, share your journey. Find love and support. It's also about helping others to be real, provide a safe place for others to share and be open. Be positive, speak words of encouragement, show interest in people, be kind. If we can do that for others, we help ourselves and those around us. Not only in making a difference for mental health but in making the world a better place.” Kim, Unreal P. Champion of #letsbereal.
How do we create a safe place for others to be open? By letting our guard down. It changes the atmosphere and the conversation.
💜 You also show more of your true self and brings an easiness in the air
💜💜 Removes the pressure to sound a certain way and have an opinion
💜💜💜 It shifts from what we know to how we feel
