For years now, maybe a bit before Covid, I’ve felt stuck in a rut of failing to express myself properly and coming across as a jerk when I want to be kind and friendly.
It turns out I have had no clue how to relax and not be in a constant state of fight or flight. So I spent time over the past month just learning what my body needed and practicing a more tender approach in the way I interacted with others.
It’s really opened my eyes more to how much the people around me are also starving for basic connection just on a community level.
Changing my perspective a little.
