Loosing a sense of self while writing on my phone/in my journal, how I get back to the grounded place ?

Hello there !

I had something I wanted to share and it’s a little bit from what I noticed in daily life.

So this post is smaller, but still very important:)

Remember to get yourself your favourite cup of tea , maybe also a candle you enjoy the most, and let’s begin.

Loosing a sense of self when writing

Just now I noticed something (more so I have been noticing this for the past while), I noticed how I disappear when writing in my phone or journal .

Loosing sight of the me, of me as a person, loosing sight of the boarders of the phone and just writing from an autopilot, just like being sucked in the phone and writing from an old version of me .

Do you notice this when you write ?

This was happening back in the day more often when anxiety was a lot more common, I used to be anxious about most things in my life, so anxiety creeped into my text messages and journal.

Anxiety still shows up, it hasn’t magically disappeared , but there are ways to work with it.

Once I noticed it, I was interested. It captured my attention and I paused for a moment .

I am not that person anymore, so how can I start to support myself in healing this in my daily life ?

What did I do

I just started to switch it up a little bit, playing a little game.

I came “out of the phone”, just like zooming out on a picture, kept the sense of me, knowing who I am , seeing the parts of myself physically what I can see while writing and not loosing sight of the boarders of the phone (sometimes I notice I get lost in them).

It takes practice, but I believe that it will turn out to be pretty good 🙂

I was writing a text message when I noticed this again and wanted to share, I felt that the text was coming from a past, anxious version of me who doesn’t want to upset the other person over the phone, or just anxious about how this, how that, what if , what not.

So I made my sight a bit more open, deep breath and you got this ! Coming back in to the center, to the grounded being.

And in writing overall- what do the sentences look like, what is the feeling behind the text (speaking as a person who’s also working on it 😉) , what is the text showing, do I actually speak like that ?

I like to dig deep even in the little daily things, can you relate?

Thank you for reading and I hope you will have a great day.

I am glad to share my thoughts with you all 🙂

Till next time 😉
