I’m realizing, here and now, that what helps me feel better is more acceptance and less pressure.
It helps me feel better to clarify that first sentence: if I accept myself and others and I put less pressure on myself to do more and to do things perfectly, I feel better.
It helps me feel better to be aware of my dreams. For example, last night I dreamt that I was trying to facilitate a Coping and Healing therapy group in a huge cavernous location with many rooms, a bad sound system, and people who weren’t really interested in participating. After trying to help them feel better to no avail, I stopped the group and let everyone go. It helps me feel better to realize that is probably an anxiety dream about my starting new groups for the doctors where I work.
It helps me feel better to realize I’ve accomplished enough in my long life and, at this point, I can relax and let go. It helps me feel better to know I can keep reminding myself of this, every day.
Does anything in this blog post help you feel better?
I hope it helps you feel better to know there’s a new year’s worth of The Daily Bitch Calendar.
Here’s the first thing I find on YouTube when I search for “what helps you feel better?”
Thanks to all who who help me feel better, including YOU!
