The Self-Awareness and Self-Compassion Podcast
Balancing Sacrifice With Restoration and Handling Daily Overwhelm With Kindness
Whenever we say yes to too many things, we have to rearrange our energy to accommodate the activities we’ve taken on board. Somewhere, something has to be sacrificed – and we have feelings about that.
Taking care of ourselves means having reasonable expectations about what is possible at any given time, and realizing that not everything is going to go according to plan or be perfect.
Even though we want to do it all, and we believe that it is all possible, the reality is that we can’t have it all at the same time.
Prioritizing where we will put our attention and focus, and making space for energy-building restoration is essential. No, you won’t get to do everything and feel amazing about every single thing.
That’s not generally how energy and feelings work. But you will be able to show up and do what matters most to you, and when you have chosen that consciously, you can relax and allow yourself the downtime to show up well for the next big activity or commitment.
