Embracing mess can help turn tough times into valuable life lessons
From loss to a complicated divorce or navigating a tangle of tricky friendships, messy situations in life will often make us feel stressed, uneasy and uncomfortable. We’re conditioned to believe that any bump in the road will send us into a spin.
When times are hard, Samantha – who runs journalling workshops and online self-love and healing courses – admits there is no harm in not knowing exactly how to fix them. In fact, she admits she “lives 85% of my life winging it, and 15% with things under control.” “Sometimes, we first need time to accept what has happened, before we can start to overcome it. Allowing ourselves to be in the moment of pain can be beneficial in the long run.
“Try to use the word in a positive way: ‘maybe’ this difficult time is going to get easier for me; ‘maybe’ there is light at the end of the tunnel. It’s fine to feel scared or overwhelmed while navigating issues, but ‘maybe’ can help us manage negative thoughts. Change the narrative and open the door to hope and positive outcomes.”
“Show yourself some compassion and empathy, and treat yourself with unconditional worthiness. It’s important to respect yourself when you feel strong, but also when you take small steps forward.”
