365 Pause Practices – Day 154
Prevent Temper Tantrums!
listen to inner wisdom for how to care for you
When I was little, my mother got furious with me because I hated
going shopping (still do), and I would hide inside those round clothes
racks! LOLOLOL. They were dark and quiet inside and I could finally
be alone!
Remember having temper tantrums as a kid? Or, maybe you still occasionally
burst your bubble as an adult! Yep. That’s a sign of having gotten wrapped up in
one’s cubicle mind – the mind stuck in “it’s all about me, right?” rather than listening to the Mind of Love, Wisdom, and Compassion for yourself and others.
Of course, the cubicle mindset is not always so obvious, rather it can be quite a sneaky little character; hiding under the bed, in the closet, blaming someone else, making excuses – the way kids can do.
TEMPER TANTRUMS can be a sign of overload and choosing not to take care of
TEMPER TANTRUMS can be a sign of overload and choosing not to take care of
yourself. If we don’t take time to slow down, breathe, let go, pause, and let our
inner Wisdom show us ways of caring for ourselves, a tantrum may be on the
horizon. Whether an inner tantrum in which we stuff emotions and stuff ourselves
with self-sabotaging habits or, an outer tantrum in which we make someone else
the target of our choice to not take care of ourselves.
CARING FOR YOU IS A CHOICE.
CARING FOR MYSELF IS ALSO CARING FOR OTHERS
because I am less likely to project my fatigue and
stress onto someone else. And, if I am not being
loving with myself, no way can I be truly loving with others.
