Most of the time we talk about maintaining the balance of give-and-take in our lives, but "balance" is very important not just for give-and-take, but for every area of our lives. One of these is spending as much time inside as you do outside.
So do you think you talk to yourself as much as you talk to the people around you?
"Being able to reach oneself is possible by being aware of one's own needs and fulfilling them with an inner strength rather than an external influence. When you focus on your own garden without looking at someone else's, it flourishes, and the roots of everything you plant there become stronger. And the more peaceful we are inside, the stronger our connection and communication with the outside becomes, because the inner garden reflects the outer garden."
You can start to realize your own needs by spending time with yourself. By staying with yourself, you can understand what you want, why you want it, and why you do what you do. At the same time, you can only realize the direction you want to go and the life you want to live in this way and proceed accordingly.
"It will be good for you to start by consciously taking time for this at first. Afterwards, it will become your norm and your time spent with yourself will increase because you will start to need to spend time with yourself and even feel the lack of it when you can't. If you want to start this process in a more organized and mindful way, you can incorporate yoga and meditation practices into your life."
At the same time, the process of spending time with yourself and valuing yourself is possible not only spiritually but also physically. A book you read, a skincare routine you do are also included in spending time with yourself.
Courage comes from the heart, and the ability to tell your own story with all your heart comes to life when you show the courage to accept all your flaws. Most of us do not want to spend time with ourselves to face our mistakes and our dark side. For this reason, we constantly want to be with someone or to be somewhere. If you also notice these kinds of needs, we can say that you are facing a good opportunity to turn back and take a look at yourself. When you turn back and take a look at yourself, what you will actually find is what you truly need.
"Being constantly with my friends or being somewhere, what exactly is the need to experience a certain emotion or to escape from a certain emotion?" You can start the process of spending time with yourself by asking yourself questions like this and meeting with your answers.
"At the same time, you can write this phrase in a place you see often to remind yourself; yourself, these things, and more:"
"fight inside, fight outside, peace inside, peace outside"
"Wishing you a life where you start to balance the time you spend with yourself and the outside world!"
"We are always by your side as Team Birdiejay to support you and your journey."
