Self-Kindness pt. 2

One way to nurture self-kindness is to have a list of kind things to do for yourself. Here are some ideas:

  • Write down 3 things you like about yourself. Say them out loud to yourself (ex: I am loving, loyal and kind)
  • When walking by the mirror greet yourself kindly, (ex. Hey gorgeous or You’re looking extra good today)
  • Self-care is a great way to show self-kindness make a list of these and do one (ex. take a break when you need it, tap, think of things your grateful or happy about)
 
When you notice self-kindness fading to the back, it’s a good time to pick up your self-kindness list and do some of them.

Self-Kindness pt. 1

Sometimes we get in a rut and self-kindness fades to the back.
 

One way to improve self-kindness is to have a list of ways to bring focus back to self-kindness. The list could have somethings to check in on and tap about, such as:

  •  When noticing self-frustration coming up, tap to reduce it    
 
  • When feeling low about yourself, check in on your self-love meter and tap on it (setup statement: even though I feel low self-love, I love myself in this moment, reminder phrases: this low feeling and I love myself in this moment)
​
  • Pay attention to your inner voice, tap about the inner voice message and redirect it to self-kindness (setup statement: even though I had an unkind thought about myself, I love myself and choose to redirect my thoughts to self-kind ones and reminder phrase: I'm releasing unkind thought and replacing with self-kind one)
​
Start redirecting back to self-kindness and watch it grow.

​
When irritating or disappointing events happen, ask yourself:
 
What was optimistic about this event happening?
 
When my finances changed, I needed to find an affordable way to entertain myself and I was introduced to streaming. It fit the bill of affordability and I love it!


Relaxing pt. 3

12/18/2020

 
When I take the time to relax, I can focus better and have more energy for the tasks needed to get done. At times when I need to relax, “beat up” messages will come up. Here are some tips on dialing down these messages:
 
  • Thank the brain-message for letting you know you have things to do
  • Remind yourself to relax at this time and the to-dos will get done more efficiently later
  • Build in relaxation breaks in your day
 
Don’t beat yourself up when you need to relax. Listen to your body, take breaks when needed and have better energy and focus to get your to-dos done more efficiently.

An old utility trailer was taken from my parent’s house recently. I could have been mad and grumbled about it but what came to mind was:
 
It’s wasn't getting used and now it will be.

When my body was giving me signals to relax, I had resistance to do this. There were many things on my to-do list to get done. In the end I did both and it felt great!

​Grief Part 2

10/12/2020

 
There are ups and downs with grief, sometimes a memory will pop into my head that brings me a smile or laugh and other times tears come. Birthday of the deceased or the day they passed can stir grief up. For myself I look forward to the days when grief has ebbed and I can remember the passed person with joy, laughter and peace.
 
Be kind to yourself and take care when grieving.
