So, if you are eating like crap then do not be surprised if you are feeling like crap. Stick to freshly made foods, and do your best to avoid foods and drinks that you know are not good for you. Your mind and body will thank you for it.
- Maintain your boundaries
Before you can maintain your boundaries you must first know what they are. If you are feeling more irritable or easily frustrated lately figure out the root cause of why. Once you have figured it out realize that these are areas in your life you may not be willing to compromise for your own happiness.
By setting boundaries you do not leave yourself feeling drained, depleted, or frustrated with your life around you thus taking out on other people. Others prefer you set your boundaries versus beign passive-aggressive.
Ask yourself these questions:
- Who am I doing this for?
- What am I giving up by saying yes or no?
- Am I able to do this without wearing myself out?
- Whose idea is this?
- By saying yes what am I then saying no to?
- Are you able to ask someone to help?
Refrain from thinking about how everyone else will feel. Do not neglect yourself with the choices in your life that you’re in charge of.
- Get in touch with your religious or spiritual life
No matter what you believe in, believing in a higher power that comes from within will help you ground yourself. Whether you pray, meditate, or anything else these rituals will leave you feeling more grounded and humble.
- Use your creativity
Creativity is one of the aspects of feminine energy. Use this time to journal to find a deeper meaning to your life, and take up dance or art class to express the inner you out into the world.
Play music or sing your heart out. Whatever it is that you desire to do to use your creativity just do it.
- Allow your life to flow
This one is not easy. Well, none of the items on this list is. Letting go is something many of us have a hard time doing. We want some form of control and to know.
By forcing this you are creating resistance that will not allow the flow of life to come naturally to you as it’s meant to.
The journey of life is a balance of embracing the known and the unknown.
