[QUOTE="Blindsided, post: 754823, member: 23811"] Overwhelmed, I certainly know the seesaw of our emotions. A long, long time ago, I learned the value of learning mindfulness to help me through the tough time of learning to cope with a physical condition that causes me chronic pain and illness, for which there is no resolution. I regularly practice mindfulness to deal with with my own physical pain, but it's more difficult to apply to my emotional upheavals, though sometimes is still better than no times. It's all about seeing the thoughts and emotions that overwhelm me without judging them. They are simply there. It's easy to condemn the thoughts, but like the pain of stubbing my toe, my reaction is much better when I realize the pain is my body's way of saying it needs words of comfort and care, not condemnation. Self-care is a choice, one we wish our DCs did. I am so glad to hear you are getting on with work. In hope and wellness for each of us. [/QUOTE]
