I AM OK YOU ARE OK ❤️ "This encouraging painting is a vivid little mantra of mutual worth. I created it as an answer to polarization—a visual salve in chaotic times." ~Bettina  When we remember that we’re all fundamentally okay, something shifts. Judgment quiets. Compassion rises. Every time we look at it, we feel a softening. There’s nothing to fix, nothing to change. Areminder that we're safe in this now moment and there's nothing to fix or change about ourselves or the other. Sometimes, it’s just what we need to see above our differences. Having this painting in your environment can be a tool for pure acceptance of the now! Part of the series "Mantras" Hubby’s broad range of text-based work in the Mantras series shares the use of positive, aspirational verbiage, which aim to uplevel attitudes and behavior. They are both a physical manifestation and a passive sender of experience dependent neuroplasticity, changing neural pathways through positive reinforcement.
