Although, emotional selfcare depends on self readiness, you don't just do it as a daily routine.
Your mental health and emotional health must agree and balance before taking the bold step.
Need I say more that you have to be aware of the parasite that is feeding on your happiness thereby making you gloomy? You feed this leach anytime you feel lonely.
Now you wonder, how do I breakout from this ?
perhaps I need a therapeutic session. No you don't, I will list few points in no particular order for you to serve as your checklist. Loneliness has to be attacked before escalating to depression.
1. Do not give room to self rejection
what ever it is that will make you second guess yourself or lead to self disapproval, wash your hands from it. you are uniquely created, meaning you carry awesomeness that stands you out from the crowd. lean on that everyday and raise up your chin.
2. The moment people start asking you questions about your looks, mood and attitude, know that something is wrong somewhere. Don't wait for people to pass negative comment. drop off the load, shake the viper out and practice self mindfulness.
3. Do what makes you love and makes you happy
Do you love talking, start podcasting, Do you love taking pictures? start creating contents, oh! you love recording yourself? then see yourself as a tiktok star and walk in the path. is it Traveling? then YouTube is calling you. do you like writing? be a scriptwriter, a freelance writer or a blogger. just go for it.
4. The Morning Routine Matters
Does prayer, ted-talk, devotionals, yoga or singing makes you feel alive? Whatever it is that makes your morning feels like a good morning , please do it. You surely need to make the best out of your morning because you generate all the energy needed for the day in the morning, be sure to generate a handful one.
5. Lay and wake up from the positive side of the bed even if it is challenging
There could be some days where mood swing might want to get the best out of you especially if you are a lady, don't give in, it's a trap (lols). Focus on positivity, Adopt a forward thinking mentality, do more of solution than complaint. be an energy vampire, suck the energy from the earth before it stings you with hustling, bustling and life challenges.
life is surely not a bed of roses but you can make each day purposeful by living one day at a time.
