Mindfulness Daily Check-In November 29, 2019
Happy Friday everyone in the Mindfulness Community 
In Life your inner calmness and your inner peace are yours and sometimes you need to protect them. It is not always easy, sometimes situations are very challenging but still it is possible to learn this step by step. When people try to "gift" you their anger you can simply refuse to take it, like if someone wants to give you their trash bag to keep it in your home and you refuse - you do not need that trash in your home.
How much do you choose what you accept from others and what you do not accept?

@amiablePeace77
If I read the question correctly, I choose to take things which are helpful for my wellbeing and development as a young adult woman. I do not take nasty negative criticisms from people and things which will affect my mental and physical health
@azuladragon34 Great job on your part!
@azuladragon34
azula, awesome!
In a way yes, but have you ever thought deeper, thinking what is going to become of them? You don't take their "trash", I don't take their "trash"...what then, what becomes of them in the end?
@dontputworriesonClouds That's a really good question...
@dontputworriesonClouds
Clouds, interesting thought. I think in some cases offering support is okay but not if that trash pulls you down. I wonder how much it could help them learning to deal with their own trash and particularly learning to avoid that it accumulates in future.
@amiablePeace77
Excuses for avoidance and stage exit quickly...
In a way yes.. but its not something to learn from and theyre just nitpicking, i wont accept them cause they might effect my self-esteem more than it already is
@AddictedTealover98 Stay true to yourself and don't accept negativity from people! Great job on your part!
@AddictedTealover98
Nitpicking is negative criticism and not helpful, I prefer being with positive people who give constructive criticism which in turn helps to build self-esteem too.
@amiablePeace77
I can take advice from others. But I can't take criticism and hurtful words.
@sunshinegiraffe123 It's so hard for me take criticism and listen to hurtful words too. It hurts my heart.
@lavenderpeach1107
yeah , can we talk through here ?
@sunshinegiraffe123
It's difficult to accept criticism especially when done in a harsh way. Words can hurt so much. I find though that constructive criticism, meaning that things which went wrong are explained, is much easier and helpful.
@amiablePeace77
True
There are people like me who can take sh...t and refuse from others because we think about what created those toxic feelings, we understand...
@dontputworriesonClouds That's so good that you can understand how to work with toxicity.
@lavenderpeach1107
90% of times toxicity is not without reason, there is an intrinsec seed of bad which causes toxicity in people, it is not their nature...
@dontputworriesonClouds I really like what you just said. It really resonates with me. I used to have a lot of toxic people in my life but it's like you said, it's not without reason!
@lavenderpeach1107
You just have to understand them and their underlying background...no one wants to be toxic, they become puppets of circumstances many times withput even realising it sadly...
@dontputworriesonClouds You are very right! I've struggled a lot when it comes to having compassion for toxic people but it's something I am currently working on.
@lavenderpeach1107
You are wise...
@dontputworriesonClouds Wow thank you!!!!
@Unknown
Wise words. When we understand we can see things differently.
@amiablePeace77 What I do is I like to listen to what everyone has to say and I take what I need to from what others say and disregard the "trash". I don't take negativity from other people. I like to take the positivity!
@lavenderpeach1107
Sounds like a helpful strategy!
@amiablePeace77 It is 
Hope you are doing well!
I accept a lot from others ... It's something I struggle with!
@betterchoices It's something I used to struggle with a lot too!
@betterchoices
It must be hard for you not being able (or mostly) to say no and always be there for everyone. You have the right to determine what you want to accept and what not. Hope you will find some helpful points in this guide:
@amiablePeace77 thank you so much!
@betterchoices
You're very welcome.
@amiablePeace77 Ha so love the question now.
How much do you choose what you accept from others and what you do not accept?
It all depends who the person is and how it fits my life. I do not really take much from others. They may think I do. But to a point I just shut off.
@RumpleSteeleSkin Good job Rumple!
@RumpleSteeleSkin
There are surely various points to consider if one accepts or not. It's healthy though to disconnect when things get too much.
@amiablePeace77 I try to accept whatever people offer but not react to that.
@soulsings Great job on that!
@soulsings
thanks for sharing this wise thought, we still need to learn to accept the situation itself. Accept someone feels angry but not making it our feeling.
@AdmirablePeace77
I use to allow people to dump all over me and let them set the rules fo my life. But I woke up one day and now, I teach people how to respect me and my boundaries. I now hold the rains.
@scarletPear1945 That's incredible! Great job my friend!
@scarletPear1945
Congrats! I love it!
