You were late, left the door open, lost your wallet, quarreled with your mom, broke up with your boyfriend, got angry, got sick... you already have an answer to all this, short and exhaustive: It's my fault!
Instead of torturing yourself, there is another way to transfer your weaknesses. How to cope with the guilt that consumes you so much?
Believe me, there are strategies or ideas that will help you cope with guilt, the most sinister of human creations.
Remember that perfection does not exist
No one is perfect, not even your friends or family members who seem to lead a perfect life without guilt. The fact that you strive for perfection, regardless of the sphere of life, is a shortcut to failure, because perfection will never be achieved. Remember that everyone makes mistakes, and it is very important to realize them and accept that you are also an ordinary person.
Don't be afraid of mistakes, try to learn from them. Take them as life lessons. When you do something wrong, do not rush to blame yourself and instill a sense of guilt, but think about what you should change to avoid this mistake next time. Remember that you can't turn back the past, and guilt won't change anything. But the future is in your hands.
Learn from your own behavior
The purpose of feeling guilty is not to make you feel bad about yourself. Guilt is an attempt to get your attention so that you can learn something from this experience.
If you learn from your behavior, you will be less likely to repeat this mistake in the future. If you accidentally said something hurtful to another person, the feeling of guilt tells you the following: you should apologize to this person and think better before you speak.
Accept that you did the wrong thing and move on
If you know that you have done wrong or offended someone, you will have to accept that the past cannot be changed. Fortunately, you can make certain changes to your behavior.
If you are to blame, apologize
Try the following exercise: admit that you were wrong, apologize for inappropriate behavior in the appropriate form, and then move on, leaving the past behind.
It's no secret that a restful sleep at night plays an important role in a person's life.
The well-being, mood and activity of a person in the daytime depends on the fullness of sleep. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to rest at night and make sure that sleep is full and strengthens your health.
First of all, you need to understand what has a positive or negative effect on your sleep at night.
The first is proper nutrition.
With a proper diet, there will not be a deficiency of some vitamins that contribute to the production of the sleep hormone. Vitamin D produces melatonin, the so-called sleep hormone, without which a full rest at night is not possible.
To avoid a lack of vitamin D in the body, include in the diet, products, mainly of animal origin: fish, eggs, sour cream, eggs, nuts.
Coffee is best drunk in the morning, and strong tea should not be consumed, especially in the late afternoon.
The caffeine contained in them stimulates arousal and leads to depletion of nerve cells, persists in the body for a long time and has a negative effect on sleep.
Alcohol and overeating also negatively affect sleep. Your body will not rest at night, but process the food it has taken.
The second is the situation.
The indoor environment also has a certain influence on the quality of sleep. It is not necessary to fall asleep to the sounds of a working TV, computer or receiver.
Extraneous noise will harm your nervous system, sleep will not be calm and intermittent. It is much better to listen to calm music with relaxing sounds of nature before going to bed.
It is necessary to fall asleep in a well-ventilated room or if the weather allows with an open window. Oxygen must be provided to the body.
It's not bad to read a book before going to bed.
The third is physical activity.
A walk on foot will have a positive effect on sleep - it is both a rest and a health benefit. Do not forget about physical activities with the usual not heavy load during the day.
Sports activities will allow you to fall asleep faster, and during the sleep phase you will recover
