If you have an old computer like me, you know how important it is to take good care of it, so that it keeps running smoothly. That means regular updates, deleting files you don't need anymore, and not running too many programs at once. I have found that you can apply the same strategies to your mind. In this post, I'm talking about mental self-care.
These days we can distract ourselves from our own feelings more easily than ever. But we are human. If we push them away they will only start screaming for our attention louder. And while that might make sense in theory, it can be really hard to actually sit with negative emotions. In this post we're exploring how you can take care of yourself on an emotional level.
Self-care is a BIG pillar under the self-love roof. To me, it is almost synonymous. Today, we're talking about physical self-care, listening to your body and the difference between and helpfulness of routines and rituals.
In my last post we found out there are a lot of ways in which we humans can be quite awful to ourselves. But I think there are just as many, if not more, ways to kindly address yourself. In this post I'm going to talk about self-kindness and self-appreciation.
Today's topic fits the gloom outside: negative self-talk. In this post we'll be talking about inner critics, negative self-thoughts and limiting self-beliefs And if these matters seem daunting, that makes sense, they are. Light some candles, warm your hands to your teacup, and we'll tackle them together.
In my last post I talked about self-exploring in order to get to know yourself more. In this post we'll explore the topics of self-patterns and self-awareness.
You can't love someone you don't know. And that goes for yourself as well. So the first thing you're going to have to do is explore who you are and why you do things the way you do.
