How to stop feeling embarassed for everything

⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚ ♡ ˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆

I know a lot of people struggle with this, this is the same for me, but I've overcame the severe part and I'm here to share some tips to stop feeling embarassed about everything.

୨୧Undestand you can't control everything୨୧

This is so important, cause it lifts a lot out of weight off your chest, undestand that sometime things are not always dictated by your actions, you may just play around 30%-70% of a role in your circumstances, but it's never always 100% . So dont put all the blame on you.

୨୧Will this matter in 5 years?୨୧

Always ask this question to yourself, "Will all of this matter in five years?", if not avoid overthinking it and if you can't help it, scream, cry and journal or record youself while you say everything out lout, but don't treat it like something that it's going to matter in a range of five years, especially if you are young.

୨୧show up for yourself୨୧

It can be as simple as a face mask, cooking a new meal or taking a shower, but you need to show love to youself and to relax your mind and body, writing love letters to youself can be very useful for when you need uplifting affirmations, try to create a comftable envirioment to relax.

୨୧do what you can do best୨୧

Part of feeling embarassed comes from our inability to compleate certain tasks or a feeling of inadeguacy, doing something that you are good at it's going to help you remember that if you are not good at this, you are good at that, or that your value didn't decrease, because you still have other skills to offer.

This is all for today hunns, I hoped this helped you, I will make a mini series with all my advices/guides so if you want to read more guides and tips make sure to stay in tune with this blog, and if you want more advices or simply ask a question you can click the "advice" button on my profile!

just want to remind everyone that you're allowed to say "stop." Or "I need a minute", or "let me catch my breath". I forget myself sometimes and it's nice to have it affirmed. Honor your needs. 🖤

First of all your blog is so cute I just loooove it… second of all I’m desperately anxious for my first time with a girl and you seem like someone who’d know some tips & tricks IDK 😭 I’m so sorry if I’m bothering you

thank you<3 i was so nervous for my first time too its normal! my only advice is to be with someone you trust and be communicative, be honest about the things you like/dislike and move at your own pace :)

Children Will Listen / Give Yourself Grace

Years ago, there was a musical I badly wanted to do, Into the Woods. And I wanted to be the Witch.

Why? She sang my favorite song.

Careful the things you say Children will listen Careful the things you do Children will see and learn Children may not obey, but children will listen Children will look to you for which way to turn To learn what to be Careful before you say "Listen to me" Children will listen

Why bring this up? Well... you'll see.

This afternoon, we took the kids to a museum in town. It was an hour drive, a lot of planning, but totally worth it.

My Eldest is a huge fan of solo time with each of us. So, Matthew stayed with the younger two in the kid area while Eldest and I made the first pass around the museum.

We came across this gorgeous glass tree with notes tossed beneath it. Some of them caught my eye. Beautiful, right?

Glancing around, I realized there were more beautiful notes on the wall. The exhibit was alive.

I read the instructions to my kid that we were to leave love to the ancestors or encouragement and words of wisdom. He and I both set to work on our notes, and when he finished, I looked over to see what his said.

I nearly burst into tears. See, I spend a lot of time speaking life into my kids. I didn't really have that growing up. In fact, I had the opposite of that. I heard a lot of things growing up that weren't great.

So, I work really hard to always speak life into my kids. To say what I think they need and what I know I wish I heard. And I try to spread love and kindness to all I meet.

Looking over to my Little's paper, I saw the exact same thing on mine. He's listening.

Me: You wrote the same thing as me! Him: You're always saying it.

Yeah, I do say that a lot. Because, it's what I needed to hear when I was a kid. But it's also what I need to hear today.

My Eldest is as much a perfectionist as I am. We both want to do our best at all times, and when we think we've fallen short, it hurts.

And I have met a lot of other creatives who feel the same way. So, if the New Year is making you question how much you've accomplished this year, or if you're feeling like you're not measuring up, I invite you to listen to my kid:

Don't forget to give yourself grace

You're doing better than you think. Heck, I question myself as a parent almost every day. But every day my kids show me that they are listening.

So, give yourself grace. You've got this.

It is June.

I didn’t have as bad of an end of May as I did a beginning.

But that’s not why I’m here.

Today, someone I work with made me feel so unsafe, I broke down to my manager in his office. It wasn’t enough, I broke down again after I got home. Flashback.

I’m currently in the bath, giving myself grace, letting my body rest. In those moments, it’s so easy to be angry or frustrated at yourself for not being okay. For letting whatever it was get to you.

At the end of the day, your body is doing what it was programmed to do: protect you. Give it grace. Give yourself grace.

You also don’t have to be alone with the weight of the universe on your shoulders. Sometimes just having someone say, “Be heavy for a while, I got you,” for a moment, is enough to keep fighting another day.

Once you get this, you have to say five things you like about yourself, publicly. Then you have to send this to ten of your favourite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool~)🌈🌈

You deserve compassion for yourself, to feel loved and appreciated, in case anyone haven't told you this today, you matter, and you deserve to put yourself first.

My love and I had a gorgeous 3.43 walk

I didn’t hit my active calorie Apple Watch goal but I am still so fulfilled by getting out for the time we did, it was also my therapy day so I try to give myself even more grace on those days
