Have you ever felt this way?
Life is always troubled by sudden troubles, and the burden on your shoulders gets heavier and heavier.
As the saying goes: overwork leads to damage, worries turn into illnesses.
Enduring physical pain, burdened in the mind, will soon crush a normal person.
Lin Yutang said: In this world, no one is without wounds, the only one who can heal you is yourself.
When reaching middle age, one must learn to heal oneself.
True emotional healing is discovering that your heart never lacked anything.
Healing oneself is about introspection.
Introspection originates from Buddhist teachings.
Introspection is about self-discovery, focusing on the internal. Introspection is about training oneself, managing emotions.
The gap between people often lies in how emotions are managed.
Facing negative emotions, the way we choose to deal with them determines the kind of relationships we have and the lives we lead.
To learn to heal oneself, one must learn to stay calm, look at emotions from a third-party perspective.
When we are angry, we can consider if there is a better way to resolve the issue, whether we must resort to anger, and what consequences anger will bring.
When we are happy, think about whether positive emotions can turn into positive energy and drive, what is the source of this joy? Can it bring changes to our future lives?
Observing emotions allows us to control the direction of our emotions.
Achieve true “not delighted by external gains, not saddened by personal losses.”
Comfort a restless mind with a calm attitude, save a lost soul with high spirits; organizing emotions to detoxify your mind and lead a life full of positive energy.
Heal yourself by letting go of the past.
According to incomplete statistics, China’s annual suicide rate reaches 287,000, and the prevalence of depression is as high as 95 million.
What’s even more heartbreaking is that these numbers increase every year.
Perhaps, you might think terms like depression, suicide, and self-harm are far from you, but they actually lurk around you.
In life, everyone feels pressure, you can’t pinpoint where the invisible pressure comes from.
But you know it’s there.
It’s not baseless; it stems from our past experiences.
The various troubles we’ve faced, such as physical ailments, academic or career setbacks, emotional setbacks, separation, and loss…
These hurts may seem past, but they are deeply rooted in our hearts and can involuntarily surface at certain moments and in certain contexts.
At that moment, you realize that you have never truly overcome the pain, bid farewell to troubles; they’ve only been concealed, and concealing is ultimately self-deception.
All unresolved people and matters in life need healing.
Healing is about “reconciling” with your past self, saying “thank you” to the past, no longer carrying the heavy burdens of the past that affect your present life.
Learning to let go and heal oneself may be difficult, but you need to be patient with and have confidence in yourself.
You must face it, strip it of its appearance and its essence, bid farewell to the burdens of the soul.
There’s a saying: True forgetting isn’t about erasing, but you are on my list, just no longer in contact from now on.
True self-healing by letting go of the past means memories linger, but no longer trouble you.
Without the burden, your soul will lighten.
Letting go and change are difficult for a person.
However, past pains and darkness are like maggots on the bone, without the determination to purge toxins, true rebirth is unattainable.
Face yourself, believe in yourself, and you’ll discover that you are stronger than you imagine.
