The roar from waves breaking, the wind drumming your ears and the sand crushing as the water pulls back into the sea. And then underneath it all - a deep calm silence…
Mindfulness is taking a balanced approach to our challenging emotions so that feelings are neither suppressed nor exaggerated. Instead of “over-identifying” with our thoughts and feelings, mindfulness is a willingness to observe our negative thoughts and emotions with openness, clarity, and equanimity. It’s a non-judgmental way of becoming aware of our inner experience as it is, without trying to suppress or deny. We cannot ignore our pain and feel compassion at the same time. This means, the more you can hold space for yourself, the more you can hold space for others. In that space, we all experience what it means to feel unconditional love. When you feel unconditionally loved, you are able to fully own your own experience and truly be who you are. There is a calmness and clarity and an ability to also love the world as it is. — Tiny Buddha #mindfulness #feelings #thoughts #clarity #equanimity #awareness #pain #compassion #calmness #clarity #tinyBuddha #tinyBuddhaOfficial https://www.instagram.com/p/CdLpUm-OE3e/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If all else fails, try taking melatonin supplements. They’re easily found in the vitamin aisle of most grocery stores. I highly recommend only starting out with 3mg first!
It always guarantees me a good night’s sleep when I do all these things so I thought I’d share in case anyone could use the tips. Sleep tight, everyone!

Hi all! I don’t know if you’re wondering or not but I still wanted to say that the problem i mentioned last time is not solved yet… This is going slower than i thought. (So, I will not share the end of my previous art yet) Well, I’ve been having stressful days since my silence and even forgot how to sleep. That’s why I decided to go back to drawing since I realized that waiting for the result for 10 days was wearing me out even more. So that I don’t waste my (maybe last) free time just waiting… Hmm I think now that maybe the problem gave me a little more time thanks to your good wishes, who knows! Oh and speaking of good wishes, I have to say that I saw all your comments and DMs now. And I’m going to read them even though it’s a little late… You guys really don’t know what all this means to me! Saying thank you doesn’t feel enough, but Thank You anyway to everyone who sent well wishes and kind words!! ❤️ I really hope all these good wishes don’t go in vain
