Sejal Kumar Newsletter| Inner Circle | Mindset Shift that helped me SO much!
Hello hello! Welcome back to my newsletter! Big thank you to all of you who subscribed :)
I have been going through a very weird headpsace in the last few months and it has felt even more intense these last few weeks. I spent a lot of time with my extended family which always brings up things (lol) and also with my naani passing there was so much that came up to the surface.
I realised that being silent and observing is the BEST thing I can do when I’m in environments that feel unsafe or just places where I feel I won’t be accepted. This is a huge shift for me because I earlier I would always try to explain my point of view to gain understanding and be seen to the point that I’d get upset and be labelled reactive. But sudeenly there was a shift and I decided to not overexplain anymore.
Interestingly, I also felt more comfortable with letting go of certain things and relationships that I was feeling were inauthentic for a while! Almost like life and my emotions were purging.
That also led to me listening to myself intently and validating myself. Even if not validating myself everytime, atleast listening to all my musings: negative, irritable, complaining, happy, problematic- ALL OF IT without trying to fix or improve myself. Just see and hold space for myself like I wanted from others. That really shifted something for me. It gave my clarity and made me not blame myself or anyone else. Just 10 minutes of this tiny excercise of sitting with myself in silence made such massive happiness just pour out from me for no reason at ALL. It wasn’t tied to being accepted, called cool or smart, being acknowledged by that one person or having achieved something. It was just me being there for myself unconditionally.
Until next time :)
