Who’s in charge of your self care & mental health?
How people react to and feel about LIFE events is influenced by many factors, including previous life experiences,; but negative behavior does not have to be the response. Regardless of your age it is still possible to make changes.
Identify your triggers. The first part of the puzzle is identifying your automatic triggers. In other words, which situations set you on a course of action over which you seemingly have little control. A triggering behavior is most often negative or undesirable. It produces actions, emotions and thoughts that you would rather avoid. It can leave you with feelings of helplessness, frustration, and yearning for greater emotional freedom.
Compassion, listening! It’s important to remember that triggers often exist because of a traumatic or sad event. Life events, both good and bad, are a part of everyone’s story. They’re not something you necessarily asked for, but it doesn’t have to mean they’re out of your control. Taking care of yourself with a sense of compassion and understanding can be a healing process. If you’ve been told your entire adult life that you must simply deal with your sadness, anger and any behavior that has stemmed from it, then begin to listen to yourself in a more compassionate way. This can have significant impact on seemingly non-adaptive behavior.
Seek creative solutions. Therapy is a positive approach to help change behavior. The act of recognizing a desire to react differently is POWERFUL and the first step to seeing a radical NEW YOU. An empowered you, who is no longer held prisoner by self-destructive response mechanisms is forging towards a new path of wholeness and a life free of FEAR.
Take care of your Mind, Body, Spirit and Emotions!
