Reliance on Someone Versus Minding Yourself?
I went to a counsellor once when I was in a very bad place mentally. My world was shook and people I thought were on my side really weren’t!
I asked them how often a week I should visit and they told me that any more than once a week and I wouldn’t heal. I’d just hope they’d fix everything for me, not develop any mental strength, and that I needed to mind myself during the week.
All of this was correct, but I never asked what taking care of my mental health and minding myself looked like.
So I stumbled my way through figuring out what that meant. What comprised a daily self care ritual. What felt like a chore and just another thing to do on my already overwhelmed and burnt out mind, and what invigorated me and gave me energy.
A lot of trial and error went into the daily foundational practices I now talk about. Daily tasks that build you up is what minding yourself is all about.
