I am here to be a light, to raise the vibration of humanity

I’ve had a random reel I did about not washing Alyssa’s hair with shampoo and conditioner or using soap or other products on my kids in regards to their daily bathing. The comments and abuse I am receiving is insanely triggering for me at this particularly vulnerable time of my life. The post is sharing my journey of not using shampoo or soaps on my kids. I just use water and a wash cloth, they are bathed daily and certainly don’t smell or are dirty – as everyone I know personally will attest to! I am being told I’m a bad Mum, I’m being told its dirty, disgusting, gross, unsanitary, I’m being called names, I’m being told I should be reported to child protection services (American I assume) and even tagging them in my post! I am being told its child abuse and neglect. As you can imagine, especially after I just shared I lost Alyssa for 15 minutes and how traumatising and terrifying that was it is extremely triggering to me to hear these things – even though I know they are not true. I am not at my full capacity to be as strong as I could be. Then people are even going to my other content and posting rude comments including one person who commented on a reel I shared about grief saying “dude dodged a bullet” you can fucking imagine how much that hurts. But this has happened, this is happening right now in the most difficult time of my life, and for some reason I feel like the universe has done this intentionally.
