Mental self care

Mental health - self care 



Having a positive mindset is mental self care. Taking care of our mindset is so important in today's world. Why I say that is because thousands of people are suffering from depression. How we deal with it is by changing how we view our situation we are currently in.
However, we do say negative things to ourselves and your thoughts always negative all the time but you don't know how to change it? Well... I'm here to help you out with it. 

1. Do think unkind thoughts about yourself and others? 

2. Do you say things out loud when you frustrated? 

3. Does your behavior towards yourself show you that you are unhappy within yourself? 

4. Do you call yourself an idiot?

Negative self talk doesn't really help our thoughts in general. To change you have to change how you view yourself as a person why I say that is because we are hard on ourselves all the time. Majority of thoughts are not true when they are negative because the allusion the mind gives us is completely untrue which causes us to think negative thoughts about something. When manifesting positivity you got to change the thoughts of that thing in order to improve the experience.
Saying negative thoughts to yourself like your not good enough, pretty enough or worthy enough it will not manifest anything positive. Your positive mindset manifests something amazing you would feel good within, like something bigger is supporting you. Being kind to yourself is a challenge but worth doing on a daily basis and I know from my own experience that saying positive things to yourself is just as important as thinking them.
