Befriend your Discomfort - I got to find a positive way of doing this.
It’s the end of the day and I’m tired. I’d be setting myself up to fail if I did it now.
After my walk tomorrow morning.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~
@Glisten like any skill, it takes some practice. But I'm glad to hear you're gonna give it a shot - feel free to report back with how you go. I think it's helpful to remember that all emotions serve some sort of purpose - it helps me to think of it in evolutionary/survival terms. They are there to keep us safe, though they can become maladaptive/overactive at the wrong times, and so being patient and gentle with them has been helpful for me to accepting them, befriending them, and giving them the space they need to move through me. If that makes sense 😅

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~
@Jynx What happened to me over the last 13 years scared the :pile_of_poo: out of me.
If I don’t embrace change I’ll keep making the same mistakes and attracting the wrong people.
Life is short.
