Why do we hurt ourselves?
Why do we hurt ourselves?
Why do we do things that are not good for ourselves?
When you treat yourself well, you feel great.
If you hurt yourself, you feel terrible.
Why do we do this?
What causes this?
Why do we hurt ourselves?
Do we have to hurt ourselves?
Do we have to do things that we know we shouldn't?
Do we have to do things now that we will regret in the future?
No, we don't have to.
We do tho.
Breathe. Stop. Relax. Accept. Be. Act.
We can do things that are good for us. We can do things that make us feel good. We can enjoy them as we go, even if it is hard, because it is. Because it is hard. Because you can learn as you go.
As we do things that are good for us, even if they are hard, we can enjoy it. We can feel good and reinforce why we do things that help us feel good.
The more we do things that make us feel good, the more opportunity we have to do things that make us fee good. And we increase our ability to help other people do the same.
We can recognize the things we do that make us feel bad and replace those activities with actions that make us feel good.
We can do our best. We will stumble, but we can learn from it. We can stop ourselves in each moment and choose actions that are good for ourselves.
