Self Help - Week One
Today I watched an interview with wentworth miller and it really inspired me as a person, to look further into my feelings and views on myself, and my everyday life.
I myself am not a person who has ever struggled with depression or anxiety but I am human, and being human comes with all sorts of baggage. I may not have experienced depression but I have, just as anybody else, experienced overwhelming feelings of anger, fear and sadness. So I wanted to start a self help blog, inspired from Wentworth miller and how amazing a person he is. I really do recommend watching this interview, it is so eye opening and beautiful, he is a man who speaks with such eloquence and grace and I can only dream of being as beautifully moving as he is.
So, today’s self help.
I have majorly important exams coming up in May, and I have been feeling a lot of stress and fear for these hurdles. But today, despite the fear of failing, I decided to take day off, give myself a break and recuperate myself for the coming week.
I sat on my bedroom floor, stole my sister’s nail polish and painted my nails, I listened to some Ed Sheeran, I sat in the garden and enjoyed the rare English heat wave, I went to church in the morning and had a meal with my family. I personally believe that this is what Sunday’s are for, spending time with your family and most importantly, Yourself.
I always try and speak positively to myself, never speak to yourself in such a way that you wouldn’t speak to a friend. Because you have to be your own best friend to achieve contentedness. I do not believe in true happiness - moments of joy, yes - true, complete happiness, I believe is a myth.
I will try and do these Self help blogs every week if people seem to enjoy them, Thank you for reading if you did.
