What is self-compassionate behavior, and how can it help prevent people from feeling overwhelmed with stress?
Slowing down and pausing is part of self-compassion.
People feel overwhelmed when they expect themselves to absorb all of those shockwaves without missing a beat. But, if you give yourself extra space to emotionally process challenges, it's less likely your feelings will morph into also feeling overwhelmed.Sometimes the most self-compassionate thing to do is rest or slow down. But, it's not always. For example, I finished a piece of work today that I'd been putting off all week.
As a general rule, when you need to slow down to be self-compassionate, expect yourself to do about 50% of what you normally would.Self-compassionate behavior often includes reaching out for support. There are many forms this could take. For example, asking a loved one for a hug or telling a friend or colleague what you're experiencing.My spouse and I homeschool our 5-year-old.
