This is beautifully written. I find a lot of the advice for anything like this a little too vague; we need more of an instruction manual, a map. When we can't just flip the switch, a shame spiral can start, at least for me, it does. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Thank you, Victoria 🙏🏻 I'm also familiar with the shame spirals and how awful they feel. Which is why having tools to navigate difficult moments is very important.
Feel your feels. For many, it's so hard because we are used to pushing down and carrying on. You've written this so well IIham with the steps! 🪜✨ I'm here to remind us how to Feel, deal, heal🦋 together 🫂
A lovely well written guide Ilham. ‘We started to eat, scroll, drink, or shop our way out of discomfort’ - I did all of these (apart from scrolling, but had it been invented in my dark days, it would have been another coping strategy.)
If you haven’t already read it, you might like Radical Compassion by Tara Brach.💕
