Acceptance is a powerful word - easy to say but hard to do!
A couple of days ago I woke up and I felt so tired and I had very low energy. My energy is very affected by my hormones once a month and when that happens, I do not feel like myself. I look at my to-do list and at the mess in the house and feel like I cannot do anything β I just want to go to bed. π
Normally I enjoy being busy and achieving things so when I lack the energy, I tend to get angry with myself and beat myself up. I have thoughts like: βI am so lazyβ, βwhatβs wrong with meβ and βI am going crazyβ. π€―
When I felt this way, I asked the universe for help and the word βacceptanceβ came into my mind. π§ββοΈ
Instantly I felt a little lighter because I got it: Instead of resisting my feelings β I need to embrace them. We need all our feelings to be whole β the good, the bad and the ugly. And it is ok to have a crap day π©β that will pass too, nothing is forever. β¨
But the βfunnyβ π€ͺ thing is that it is taking me so many bad days to learn this. When I come out of it I think β βOh, it was only a bad day, why did I make such a big deal about it?β But the next month I do it again!! So Iβm still learning. Maybe by writing this post I will remember next month. π€
Does any of this resonate with you? I hope it can help you if you ever felt the same. Please comment below. π
