We are responsible for how we feel.

We are responsible for how we feel.

If you know that your day has started off rough or perhaps you simply just don't feel like yourself for a reason unknown to you; you can still restore your sense of wellness in your mind and spirit by putting in the work needed to help yourself.

-- Talk to God about it--

I literally talk to God like I would my husband and my close friends.

God is to be that close and intimate to us to share with and depend on.

--Ask him(God) for help and guidance--

Some things are not always cut&dry for me but I know to start with asking God.

I have never known him not to give me information about myself; direction; correction; instruction; comfort; that's needed for me to resolve how I feel.

--Do the opposite of how you feel--

If the feeling makes you feel like abandoning others and rejecting love....then surround yourself with Godly family and friends and allow yourself to embrace love and display it.

If the feeling has you feeling rejected then focus on those times where someone expressed love to you.

If the feeling has you complaining and moping then make it a important point to focus on God's goodness in your life.

We all have something(s) to be grateful for.

We are blessed in ways we might not be focusing on at that time.

--Rejoice & Be Glad Through Actions--

Do things that you enjoy that are healthy and good for

you to do.

Light some candles & take a warm bath with some christian jazz.

Go for a trail walk.

Have some tea/coffee and read a chapter of an old book you love.

Workout. When your body feels good, your mind follows.

Make that new recipe dish you've been holding onto.

Craft & create something.

The list is endlist honestly. It's just a matter of us taking charge of ourselves more and being aware of the things and ideas that creep up in our minds that lead to us not feeling well.

Take responsibility & control of how you feel.✨

What You’re NOT Responsible For
Sometimes, it’s hard to step back because we care so much. It can even feel easier to help others than to help ourselves. But learning to let go of these 7 things is an act of self-care. It’s not always easy, especially if you’re not used to it, but setting these boundaries creates space to show up

I Am Not Responsible For Everyone’s Feelings
For years, I confused compassion with responsibility. If someone was upset, I thought it was my job to fix it. If someone was disappointed, I thought I had done something wrong. If someone was unhappy, I carried it as if it belonged to me. But healing is teaching me a different truth.

Are you responsible for your own growth?
Before anyone can correct you, you have to be willing to correct yourself. You are your first teacher. Your first mirror. Before the feedback, before the accountability partners, before the tough love , it’s you. How you speak. How you carry yourself. How you treat people when no one’s watching.
