Taking Stock Of Ourselves

  Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.   The 4th Step of Alcoholics Anonymous.   What does this mean?   To clean out one’s mental and emotional closet to have a happier more peaceful life.   How so?   Many obstacles keep us from contentment, worry and dread becoming an epidemic…the what ifs, ruling our daily lives. And this isn’t just about drunks trying to stay sober,…

🙌🏻 Here ya go, I’m just going to drop this right here. 🤗 There’s a lot to be said about this, but to be honest I just woke up at 2pm after working 2 12 hour overnight shifts and my brain isn’t exactly firing on all cylinders yet 😂 Might turn this topic into a blog post later, idk. In all honesty, hoping to hear back from you all on where you stand with the “feelings aren’t fact” and “all feelings are valid” conversation. For me I feel like there is definitely a happy middle, but the raging cognitive dissonance I experience with these two concepts is unreal at time 😂 So… lay it on me! • • • • #feelings #feelingsarefeedback #feelingsarevalid #feelingsarentfacts #inmyfeelingschallenge #soberthoughts #sober #sobriety #emotionalsobriety #sobercommunity #recoverycommunity #addictionrecovery #mentalhealthrecovery #recoveringalcoholic #cognitivedissonance #sobermovement #sobermotivation #soberinstagram #recoveryworks #sobersupport #wedorecover #friendsofbillw #alcoholicsanonymous #soberliving #soberlifestyle #recoveryposse #emotionsmatter https://www.instagram.com/p/CqBb-zJuf_S/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Spilt Coffee

Yesterday was my last day off before returning to work after 2 weeks of vacation. I usually feel bad, having to get back to work but I was feeling pretty good yesterday. I am trying to be grateful that I have a job that I like and that pays me well. The Husband was complaining and I tried to detach from his feelings while letting him have them.

I was cleaning the kitchen after cooking and accidentally knocked a tumbler full of coffee, spilling the contents. Of course, immediately I blamed him for keeping a tumbler full of coffee so close to the sink but not inside it. I cleaned up the mess and told myself that it’s not his fault that I spilt the coffee and that I can choose to move the tumblers into the sink if I want to to prevent a spill next time.

I am noticing that with more awareness, I can feel my feelings and process them in real time instead of letting them come out sideways at others. When I feel myself becoming irritable, as soon as I notice it, it kind of takes takes the edge off and I can choose my actions and words more wisely. It’s when I don’t even notice that I’m annoyed that my feelings take over me and I become victim to them.

I am so grateful that I can “see” myself in this way and not be swayed by the whims of my feelings. I know my feelings are important and that it’s trying to tell me something. It’s good information to have and to feel.

But I don’t need to let it control me.

I can be happy, even after I’ve spilt the coffee.

Sobriety isn't just about drugs n alcohol... it's about anything you do to "escape" or harm yourself.... sex, toxic relationships, toxic behaviors, self harm of any kind, etc. 🫂💜💙💚💛🧡💛💚💙💜🫂 #sobriety #ptsd #sobrietyjourney #ptsdrecovery #addictionrecovery #selfcare #cptsdrecovery #sexaddictionrecovery #alcoholrecovery #drugrecovery #sobrietyjourney #emotionalsobriety (at Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ccx4jMMLBtv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The 3 Ls, Like, Love, and Lust. The Greatest of Which is Like!

We talk a lot about love. Love is the answer, love will set you free, love cures all, love love love.

Lust, we know all about that one. I like it.

But, I don't think there is enough Like in the world. If we liked each other more, things would be better. In my experience, love is something we say, some would say we also show, but like is what we really show.

If you have ever been in a relationship where you didn't feel they "liked" you, but professed to "love" you, you might know what I'm talking about.

Feelings

Excerpt from Love Yourself, Value Everything book

And when you are thinking, it is important to visualize what you are thinking about and experience what you're thinking about through feelings. If you are thinking about being on the beach laying in the sun, then you probably feel happy, smile, and feel the sun on your skin. Imagine the peace, ease, and relaxation that you may feel. Please allow yourself to pretend to actually feel that. The feeling is a necessary part of the creating process. If you cannot feel your thoughts, if you cannot pretend to experience your thoughts, then you are missing the creativity aspect of creating. If you are telling yourself that you are happy, it is important to feel that as well. Your thoughts need support and positive vibrations which come from your emotions and feelings. If you are telling yourself that you are sexy and fit, but then you feel embarrassed or ashamed when you look in the mirror, you are sending mixed signals. If you tell yourself that you are wealthy, but cannot lend or give a dollar to your friend, you are also sending mixed signals to the universe. So make sure that your thoughts are supported by your feelings. You can generate these feelings from visualizing those actual things happening to you now. Your feelings are extremely important in the process of creation, so feel your ideal life now…

The Wheel of Misfortune 😂 (AKA feelings.. blech) When I first got sober I was absolutely APPALLED at all the different emotions I was experiencing. I’d go from happy to sad, excited to depressed, bitter to serene… it was a total cluster-f@ck. Then to make matters worse, I would really get to feeling some type of way and I would have no words to describe what the feeling was. Then someone showed me the feelings wheel, which to fair was equally as confusing at fiof it. Anyways, I thought I’d share, just in case it could be helpful for you too! There’s really no right or wrong way to use the wheel, but I’ll share two of the most common methods! Method 1: ➡️ Find the inner-most circle ➡️ Identify the core feeling you’re experiencing ➡️ Based on the core emotion, extend to the corresponding pie slice. ➡️ Review which of those emotions feels relatable based on your situation. ➡️Extend to the outermost corresponding section of your pie slice and name your feeling. Method 2: ➡️ Start on the outer-most ring of the wheel. ➡️ Find an emotion that most closely described what you’re feeling. ➡️ Move inward on the corresponding pie slice to narrow your feeling more precisely. ➡️ Move to the inner-most circle to help find the core emotion behind what you’re feeling. THAT’S IT! Pretty simple right, but man is it helpful if I’m struggling to find out what it is I’m actually feeling. Have you ever used a feeling wheel? What are your thoughts? • • • • #emotionalsobriety #feelings #emotionsmatter #feelingswheel #nameyourfeelings #nameyouremotions #feelingsarefeedback #sober #sobriety #sobercommunity #recoverycommunity #recoverytools #soberjourney #recoveryjourney #healingjourney #mentalhealthrecovery #mentalhealthmatters #soberisbetter #emotionalintelligence #emotionalhealth #recoveryworks #recoveryposse #odaat #soberlifeisthebestlife #soberthoughts #addictionrecovery #recoveringalcoholic #dualdiagnosis #friendsofbillw #alcoholicsanonymous https://www.instagram.com/p/CpvauQWO9HE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It's crucial that you re-educate yourself about health!  We should all be educated about our individual needs, sensitivities and addictions because most people don’t understand why they are unhappy, unhealthy and unsuccessful. Truth is entrepreneurs experience immense pressure when starting and attempting to build their own businesses. A constant state of anxiety, extremely high expectations, long hours and a lack of time taken for their mental and physical well-being cause big blockages.  The desire to do whatever it takes to succeed combined with having to project a confident image to investors, clients, and employees makes it especially difficult for individuals to make their health struggles priority so they cover up their problems with band aids and medications.  According to Fortune magazine, 13 percent of startups fail because their founders have lost focus, 9 per cent fail because they've lost their passion, and 8 per cent fail due to founder burnout, meaning 30 percent of startups fail due to the emotional state of their founders. Entrepreneurs are more prone to mental illness because they're more likely to neglect their health: their diets are often poor, they almost never get enough sleep, and many never make time for exercise. Creating conversation about entrepreneurs and mental health is one step that I will take to help you feel more comfortable talking about your own struggles, and putting a self-care plan in place will ensure you get healthier and wealthier naturally.
