Focusing on the new You
01 — Shed light on what you are grieving about yourself
Acknowledge the reason you are grieving your old self. What precisely are grieving from? Is it your identity? Your learned behaviors? The false narrative of your reality?
02 — Combat the feeling to consecrate or look at yourself as a villain
Realize the old you was human, that experienced bad and good, and with your new self you are still human and will still have experiences.
03 — Create a routine that helps you process the grieve
Start journaling, exercising, do/change something about yourself or who you are around to help you get through the process.
04 — Understand you are a “griever” and all is not lost
You are not a victim. You are simply human and your experiences are yours to share with others who can relate to you. It is not the end, it is the beginning.
05 — Show compassion for the new you
Be patient with the new you. Show yourself grace. You will have triggers and will have a trial-and-error period when it comes to recognizing what triggers you and how to appropriately handle your responses to them.
