Hey Mindfulness Community!!

I tried to pull out an old but amazing post by Rumple and thought you might love the topic- Self Love/Worth.

I do understand that it is very hard to put in the time to do good things for ourselves. Some reasons can be work, family, trauma past things, mental health things, physical health issues, or just plainly NOT KNOWING HOWheart And that is ok for whatever reason you have they are all legit and yours. Thing is if we are always making sure OTHERS get shown love, care, heard etc then who is giving that YOU?

So I'd like to share some ways you can show love and care and attention mindfully to YOURSELF:

1. Validate your feelings, Its okay to feel bad sometimes.

2. Refrain from judging or placing negativity on your thoughts or feelings.

3. Give yourself a little extra comfort and soothing.

4. Listen to and respect your inner experience.

5. Remind yourself of all the wonderful things that you are.

6. Be grateful for the little (and big) things in your lives.

7. Commit to your physical health

8. Invest in your psychological/emotional/spiritual health.

All of these things take time and effort and dont happen without some intention and inner work. But its worth starting, in at least one small piece today.

Here are a few mindfulness exercises to listen to:

And, my question to you is "What could you do today to make yourself feel little extra comfortable and soothing?" What is your idea?

Please share with us!!

@RumpleSteeleSkin Great check in, Rumple. Thanks. Needed the reminder. Having trouble staying present today and staying focused. And that's ok. This is not a test or an evaluation. It's just the way today happens to be. Will check out the videos in a little bit. Just trying to ground myself while some anxious thoughts run through my head.

@melliotm Grounding is important Mellio otherwise thoughts take us for a ride too and fro on the past and future spectrum. I am glad you are working on grounding and may find that middle ground atleast.

Hey there Melliheart Glad to see you today. Yes just to notice how you are doing and not judging whats going on or how you are feeling is great. I do hope the anxious feelings lesson and you are able to enjoy the daysmiley

Checking in to m self-care/love is something that I really should do more often. I think I am going to set an alarm on my phone to remind me to check in with my feelings and emotions and on how well I am taking care of myself. Thanks for the reminder :)

as i have acquired a heavy load of stress, i find that i need to be extra mindful of getting my rest, and remembering my meds, and MOST importantly, being aware of my breathing~! yes
