Giving Yourself Permission to Recharge

1/26/2022

4 Comments

 
Many of you are feeling good and doing quite well, while others are having a really tough time right now. This is for the latter group…
 
Sometimes in life you’re going to feel like it’s all too much. This is when you know you’ve hit your capacity for giving, and need to spend some time in self-care and receiving.
 
There’s nothing wrong with, and actually it’s necessary to, disconnect. Put your phone on do not disturb. Have a bed day where you read, or binge watch a show. Stay in pjs late. Stop doing and allow yourself to be.
 
You’re not alone if you’re feeling compassion fatigue.
 
You’re not alone if you’re overwhelmed.
 
You’re not alone if you feel like you just can’t handle one more bit of restriction and limitation from this pandemic.
 
If you’re tired, you’re not alone.
 
I’ve been saying this for years, and clearly, it’s not letting up; there’s increased chaos in the world as well as major shifts taking place in our inner worlds. The point is ultimately, to move beyond what’s not working, into a greater reality. But going through it is like being a butterfly in a cocoon; it’s not fun. We’re literally being pulled apart in all directions to become new.
 
None of us are victims to this, we all chose to be incarnated at this time. And it’s more intense than most of us ever thought. 
 
Don’t fight it when you feel overloaded; resisting it prolongs it and makes it worse.
 
Give yourself permission to relax. Give yourself permission to stop and recharge. You can’t move forward with a drained battery, so quit trying. You deserve a reprieve, you need a pause.

I love "You can't move forward with a drained battery". That's such a great analogy! I also love how gifted you are at making things understandable and accessible (as I've said before). What I read here is a clear, loving and doable prescription for self-care, which is an expression of self-love. But if you suggested that people love themselves more/better they would look at you and say, "Huh???" Thus the power of your prescription!!

Instead of "a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down" it should be "a blog by Tina helps the healing go in". ☺️

❤❤❤

Hi Tina,
Interesting timing. Sunday and Monday I just didn't feel right and it wasn't something I could really express in a way that made sense but just felt off. I did exactly what you suggested and did pretty much nothing for those days and when I woke up today, I could feel that whatever was going on had shifted. I actually felt grateful that there wasn't anything I really had to do and could just give in to feeling off!
I'm sure this will resonate with lots of people and I thank you for putting it down in writing.
Keep up the amazing job you're doing!!!
❤️❤️❤️
