something that my therapist taught me that really helped me have more self compassion was the concept of an inner child (please note this is not the same as having different personality states)
when I'm having a hard time with my mental health I often have a lot of negative self talk and struggle to look after myself but when I imagine telling a young version of myself the things I tell myself now, I can't.
beating myself up about a mistake? it's alright, we make mistakes and we can learn from this.
struggling to get out of bed? just try for 10 minutes, watch YouTube or listen to music and if you can't stay up we can go back to bed for a bit and try again later
need to do eat something but can't find motivation? I wouldn't let them go hungry so I'll grab a snack while I make something
need to do chores but feel like I can't? let myself dance to taylor swift and do as much as I can, maybe offer a reward afterwards.
I've found it's so much harder to be hard on myself when I imagine I'm saying those things to younger me. in an ideal world I would be kind to current myself but if I can't? I'll be kind to the six year old version of me who deserves to be looked after and cherished and told they're important. when I can't bring myself to do something for me I'll do it for them.
I don’t know who needs to hear this right now, but it’s okay if your spirituality, beliefs, and practices have changed since the beginning of the pandemic. And it’s okay if you’re still figuring out what those changes mean for you.
Just by existing in a country with a lot of cases and/or deaths, you’ve experienced a continuous traumatic event stretched out over 14+ months. Even if you personally have not been affected, your day-to-day routine has probably been disrupted in some way. This kind of continuous trauma is going to cause major changes in every aspect of your life and personality – and that’s assuming you haven’t had any other traumatic events that may or may not be related to the pandemic, like unemployment, housing insecurity, or losing a loved one.
It’s normal to see some changes in your spiritual life after this kind of trauma. Changes in spirituality are a common symptom of grief. Some people feel a stronger connection to/belief in their faith, and may become more active. Others feel disconnected from their faith and may find it difficult to find motivation for spiritual pursuits. Both are normal, healthy ways of coping with your grief.
You may also find that your experiences in the past year have lead you to reevaluate whether your beliefs and practices really work for you anymore. You may have a system, a tool, or a guide that has been a cornerstone of your spirituality for years, but that suddenly doesn’t seem to be a good fit anymore. This is normal. The world has changed. You have changed. It’s natural that your spiritual path would change with you.
You are not broken. Your gods have not abandoned you. You are a human coping with trauma, and you are allowed to make changes to your spiritual practice so you can feel more supported.

Woozi: the fuck is that supposed to mean.

your eyes - wen jun hui
summary: your sweet boyfriend jun was always there to take of you whenever you needed to do something. you being blind hasn't really affected him in any way since he met you at a coffee house, you walking slowly besides your friend in case you trip over something and him helping you from falling over the freshly made coffee. he was sweet, kind and so caring towards you and you never had been more grateful for having him in your life. or was it your biggest mistake, to let yourself be taken care of someone whom you doesn't really know? someone who, behind the mask of his kind façade, hides a deep dark secret?
pairing: fem!reader x incubus!jun
story type: a three part series
genres: slight angst, smut, slight horror element, jun is more than he seems to be, fantasy

He was scrolling through his phone when you put your head on his lap
Would be very confused at first but he would let you just lay there
Then he would play with your hands (like touching your fingers with his gently)
Shows you videos that make him laugh
He would be slightly worried if you don’t say anything and would ask if you’re okay
If you’re not okay, he’ll make you talk to him about what’s wrong
If nothing is wrong and you just wanted to lay there, he’ll find it so cute
Puts his phone on mute to take photos of you
Seonghwa scrolls through his phone, looking at the usual videos pop up on his feed of baby videos and animal videos. He giggles at the babies and happily laughs to the silly animals. When he noticed your presence, he’s quick to greet you but got nothing in response. You just let yourself fall on his lap and he’s worried you’re going to end up crying, but he’s glad to notice how happy your eyes are and that you just wanted him to hold you for a bit. Seonghwa does and shows you every video he is watching.
