The idea of constantly staying positive, often referred to as toxic positivity, can be misleading. While optimism has its place, masking our true emotions with a forced smile can be harmful. It invalidates our real feelings, prevents us from seeking support, and can lead to shame and frustration. ๐๐
We all experience good days and bad days. Life happens, and sometimes it angers or frustrates us. Having the tools to navigate these moments means we donโt have to stay stuck in that energy. ๐๐ช
It's essential to allow yourself to feel whatever emotions ariseโanger, frustration, sadness. It's okay to be upset. Just donโt dwell on it. Donโt attach a story to it or keep talking about it, as that only perpetuates the negative energy. Let those emotions pass through you without clinging to them, and you'll find it easier to move forward. ๐โจ
Remember, weโre only human. Feel it, let it pass, and start again. ๐๐
