RE: Love for yourself #3 // Reboot yourself

in #psychology7 years ago (edited)

I'm with you on this.

I've experienced this too, and am still learning and honing the best way to stay charged.

Sometimes the only thing you can do is lie down for a reboot.

And it's not a bad thing at all. It's not a failure or a sign of defeat. It's just the natural way that our bodies operate.

We do live within cycles - all life does.

And I think we feel the best when we can rely on a predictable daily cycle with little deviation.

To me, that's why rituals can be so calming, and so helpful too.

I've, only in recent years, discovered the true value and enjoyment of having dedicated personal rituals. And they can involve the simplest of things, too. (Hint: see my tiny user pic for a very beloved one of mine.) Just the act of engaging in a ritual can be soothing and helpful, and ease tension, emotions, even physical discomfort.

I do like your analogies used:
Recharge, reboot - create a re-energizing self-love ritual.

This is, indeed, a very wise and helpful thing to do for your overall health and well-being. You are very right, it's so important that we love ourselves. So thanks for the reminder!
