Ways to respond to lostness and hopelessness
- Honour your feelings of hopelessness without being consumed by them. Don't deny uncomfortable emotion, but welcome it like a guest, not a permanent resident in your mind.
- Remember that compassion for ourselves isn't often our first instinct.
- No judgment. Your feelings are expected and not a sign of failure or weakness.
- Humble goals. No act of hope is too small.
- Find little pivot activities, be it watering the plants, or listening to music.
- Hope without proof. Hope is moving forward in life and oneself without the certificate guaranteeing "x will happen."
