Express Self-Compassion
We all experience difficult times at some point in our lives. That’s a normal part of living. What we all don’t do is have empathy for ourselves when we are in distress. Do you ever feel like it’s so easy to practice compassion for others but difficult to do so for yourself? This is fairly natural as we tend to be hard on ourselves.
If you want to overcome adversity faster, the best place to start is by being more self- compassionate. In doing so, you will improve your emotional wellbeing and give yourself the confidence to rise up and keep moving forward. You also need to learn how to forgive yourself.
No good comes from beating yourself up over an event or situation. No matter what it is, let it go.
Try creating a daily mindfulness practice, like deep breathing, meditation, or yoga. This will help you navigate stressful times with a clearer mind. Also, don’t be afraid to ask for help, and if you need to take a break, do it. Honor yourself, knowing that you have everything that you need inside of you to weather any storm.
