Last night, I found myself off balance and worried and critical or myself. I thought, “I need to be grounded! How do I do that again?”
\nSo…I listened to some of \u00a0recordings for grounding \u00a0and heard Jessica \u00a0say, “For the duration of this session, be present.”
\nHow was I being present and grounded? I had headphones on as I was doing dishes. DISHES! I didn’t want to be doing dishes. But I thought, well, be present. I took the phones off and tried to be mindful…as I did the dishes and cleaned the bathroom.
\nI came up with this mantra…”Every day in every way my life is about me.”
\nI had been going around in the holidays thinking I needed to be considerate of everyone else and listen to everyone else…and it had put me off balance and made me CRITICAL of other people AND myself.<\/p>\n
as I was putting away dishes and cleaning the counters, I thought…I can trust myself to be considerate of other people. The people who love me WANT me to have what I want. And I want good things for them.
\nI won’t be mean, but if i don’t put things where I want them and do the things I like and choose the things that give me pleasure, no one will know (including myself!) what I want.
\nEvery day in every way my life is about me.<\/p>\n
Self-centered is just an acceptance of what is. Of COURSE my life is all about me. That’s why it’s my life.<\/p>\n
