SheVOLVE Episode 3: Cut Out Complaining
SheVOLVE: Discover and embrace your hidden superpowers!
When you let go of electronic and mental distractions like we've talked about doing in the last two episodes, the idea is to make room for good things, right? Or at least things that are more rewarding than "doom-scrolling" and other less-than-mindful activities.
But what do we do when what we notice with our newfound head-space is negative comments and complaints? And what if they aren't just about other things and people, but also ourselves?
This week we're talking about some of our explorations since the last episode. (Gael tried some big new things including an awesome hike and using her new camper; I talk about some of my experiences with trying some new kinds of meditation and giving up alcohol for 31 days).
Interestingly, when we change and try new things, it can trigger unexpected reactions in ourselves AND the others in our lives. Some of this could include some negative comments from ourselves and others.
So for us, it seems like a natural next "superpower" to explore is to cut out complaining. One thing we both think it is important to remember is that speaking up for yourself or providing necessary feedback is not the same as complaining!
