Are you a people pleaser too?
Just breathe...
That’s what I am telling myself for the next few days.
What I have really noticed about myself (and maybe you feel the same) is that when I am not grounded, I feel super off in ALL areas of my life. I feel extra emotional, a little more irritable, and tired, My brain works slower and my body is a bit more sore.
Tomorrow, I am moving to a new apartment, so the past week, I have been putting everything into boxes. I thought I didn’t have a lot... until I started packing and I was like, "damn how the hell did I collect so much more stuff!?" So I have been living with boxes and no Wifi because I had to disconnect early.
I keep having to remind myself that everything is fine even though I don’t feel fine 😅
Another thing I have been working on during this time has been staying firm to my boundaries and not feeling bad about things.
I am definitely a recovering People Pleaser.
This week I started to feel super burnt out by the end of the week. And I had told a friend we would work out at the Ninja Gym late on Thursday. When I woke up Thursday, my body was sore, my stress level was high from packing, and my body was just not feeling up to it.
My past self would have gone and worked out late even though I was exhausted. I would be too scared to bail because I felt bad and didn’t want my friend to be upset with me.
But instead, I communicated how I felt and said we would have to go another time. Did I still feel bad? YES! But it was a step in the right direction to putting myself and my needs first.
So now my next step is holding boundaries and not feeling bad about it.
It’s such a reminder of how much YOU matter in this thing called life. A quote from the book I am reading hit home on this topic so I wanted to put it here in case you need to hear it today:
“The truth is that to some people, you are the beauty standard. To other, you are simply overlooked. To some, you are a genius at your craft. To others you are irrelevant. To some you are an incredible friend. To others, you are a complete stranger. To some you are a life partner. To others you are not someone they’d even date. To some you are teacher. To others you are a student. To some, you are a guide. To others you are a beginner. To some you are a shining light. To others, you reveal their darkness. The reality is that you exist in so many different forms and images and beliefs and stories, and yet, the only one that is only ever really going to matter is the one you tell yourself."
