You can begin to alleviate your feelings of guilt by correcting things with this person the very next time you see them. An apology would be great. Acting kindly every time you deal with them in the future is even better.
For example, you set out to follow a stringent eating plan from a book and then neglected to follow all of the directions.
Guilt can come out in a number of ways, hurting yourself or others around you. Guilt can lead to low self-esteem or self-hatred, which can then lead to self-sabotage or even self-abuse. Guilt can also lead to lashing out at others and constantly finding fault with them.
How Does Guilt Affect Your Self-Care?
1. You're feeling guilty about choosing to do something for your own self-care.
2. You're feeling guilty about not meeting your own expectations
Let It Go, When:
Imagine you're all set to leave the house for your personal training appointment at the gym. A simple "look" from one of your children could impart enough guilt to lead you to the phone, instead, to cancel your appointment for self-care.
There are going to be times when you'll want to pay attention to your guilty feelings, and there will be times when you want to let them go. Here's a guide for telling which is which, and some tips on how to do it.
We're not feeling ok about who we are.
We're not feeling ok about the choices we're making.
We haven't met our own expectations.
We haven't met the expectations (real or imagined) of someone else or society at large.
I used the example earlier in the article, of feeling guilty about leaving your child to go to an exercise appointment.
If you're trying to do something ONLY to meet external expectations, your guilt may be telling you to find something that you wholeheartedly believe in.
Taking It To Your Self-Care Plan
Later that afternoon, the same child accidentally spills a glass of milk. How loving and forgiving might you be,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], based on the circumstances of the day?
Pay Attention, When:
When this type of guilt gets in your way,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], tell yourself something encouraging about how this self-care is going to positively impact your whole family and everyone else you're in contact with.
2. You're feeling guilty about something you did
Take a good look at what you're feeling guilty about not doing, and re-evaluate whether it's truly what you want to choose.
Having expectations that are too high or otherwise unrealistic will generally lead to
For example, it's March and you wonder what's become of your New Year's Resolutions.
When Do We Usually Feel Guilty? When:
For instance, you spoke unkindly to someone at work. Maybe that goes against the values that were instilled in you as you were growing up (the "golden rule"), or maybe it's a code of behaviour you've personally adopted. In either case, you haven't met your or society's expectations of how to behave.
Guilt is not a good motivator for change. Accepting ourselves for who we are and changing from there is the healthiest and most effective starting point for self-improvement. When you can believe you're GOOD ENOUGH as you are, you can truly begin to grow and change.
Getting "selfish" is the best way to care for the others in your life. When you're feeling strong, confident, healthy, resilient and relaxed, you're more efficient, productive, creative and fun!
Upset with yourself for missing the appointment, you berate yourself all day about your lack of commitment and torment yourself with negative thinking.
Apologizing and admitting you were wrong can be a difficult thing. And it's worth it.
It's possible you haven't fully "bought in" to the idea that this is the best eating plan for you. Someone else you know tried it, and the author certainly seems convincing. But deep down you're not sure this is the plan for you.
1. You're feeling guilty about not completing something you decided to do.
