Ver películas con mis amores

Dicen que las pantallas nos hipnotizan y es cierto, pero qué relajante me resulta estar acurrucada en la cama con mis hijos riendo con alguna buena película.

En este caso también es importante filtrar el tipo de contenido que consumiremos, porque no todos los títulos son buenos para hacernos sentir mejor.

Actualmente y a recomendación de una querida amiga de este mundo virtual, @purrix, a quien aprovecho de invitar a esta iniciativa, estoy viendo "Woo, una abogada extraordinaria", un drama Coreano del que podemos aprender mucho, sobre todo el respeto, la aceptación y la sensibilidad sobre las personas que se comportan de una manera que no comprendemos y que no por eso son menos humanas, más bien, somos los que nos consideramos "normales", quien muchas veces no pareciéramos tener humanidad.

Caminar

Es bastante conocido que hacer actividad física mejora nuestro estado de ánimo, en mi caso, por ahora no puedo esforzarme mucho, sin embargo puedo caminar, lo que me ayuda mucho a oxigenarme, a sentir que se aligeran mis cargas, a cambiar mi energía.

Además, disfruto la compañía de mi esposo, con quien puedo conversar en un tiempo y espacio en que no debemos ocuparnos de nada más.

Agradecer

Enfocarme en lo todo lo que tengo y agradecer por ello, me ayuda a alejarme de la queja que me produce pensar en las cosas que siento que me faltan.

Hoy cuando estaba en fisioterapia, había un joven con muletas que se sentía muy mal porque intentó pararse y le dio un terrible dolor que no se lo permitió. Al rato, cuando se le alivió, agarró sus muletas, se apoyó en ellas y se levantó, diciendo que extrañaba poder caminar. Me dolió que se sintiera así, pensé también en quienes están en sillas de ruedas y sentí que lo que yo tengo es insignificante. Agradecí por poder caminar.

Auto animarnos es tarea de todos los días y de cada instante, es mantener encendida nuestra llama interior, no dejar que se apague, porque luego no sabemos si encontraremos la lumbre que necesitamos para reanimarla.

Por haberme acompañado en esta lectura:

ENGLISH VERSION

There are situations that require us to do our part to overcome them, to be well, it is something that corresponds to us, it is our responsibility, so there is no justification for allowing ourselves to fall and not get up, as many times as necessary.

In the publication of the column "Desde mi mapa Nº 50" - ¡¡Keep your spirits up!!, @mllg shares with us a little about his post covid recovery and the need he has had to apply strategies to lift his spirits, in addition, he leaves us as an initiative that we share ours.

I appreciate this new opportunity to add experiences in this beautiful community.

At the moment I also have to be strong and be constantly chasing away feelings such as sadness or despair, because I have been on medical rest for several months due to a cervical affection, which in addition to pain, causes me vertigo and dizziness, something that I feel paralyzes me. I can only sleep in one position and I cannot move my head freely.

_{In physiotherapy}

The thing is that I have received different medical treatments and so far I have not found improvement, at this point, there are times when I would like to cry.

However, I am continuously working to keep away the feelings that take away my strength, because I know that my good mood is important to keep going. Besides, I have a lot to be thankful for, so I will have the necessary patience until I am well.

Some of the things I do to lift my spirits are:

---

Pray

Having faith is a powerful tool when facing difficulties, firmly believing that everything will pass, that everything will be all right, that there is a God who listens to us.

I believe in God, but if someone doesn't believe, maybe they know that we attract what we think about, it's kind of a law of the universe, so focusing on our well-being gives us a better chance of it materializing, so it's preferable to keeping us thinking that everything is wrong.

Listening to music

It may seem superficial, but it is impressive how music can influence my mood.

At times like this, I can't allow myself to listen to music that fills me with melancholy, but rather I choose music that transmits joy, that has a rhythm that makes me dance.

There are many melodies that I like, but recently I listened to a Christian song and I discovered that it helps me to lift my spirits, it is a song by Alex Zurdo, called "Pentagrama". I share the link to the video below.

Watching movies with my loves

They say that screens hypnotize us, and it's true, but how relaxing it is for me to be curled up in bed with my kids laughing at a good movie.

In this case it is also important to filter the type of content we consume, because not all titles are good for making us feel better.

Currently and on the recommendation of a dear friend of this virtual world, @purrix (whom I take this opportunity to invite to this initiative) I am watching "Woo, an extraordinary lawyer", a Korean drama from which we can learn a lot, especially respect, acceptance and sensitivity about people who behave in a way we do not understand and that does not make them less human, rather, we are those who consider ourselves "normal", who often do not seem to have humanity.

Walking

It is well known that doing physical activity improves our mood, in my case, for now I cannot exert myself much, however I can walk, which helps me a lot to oxygenate myself, to feel that my burdens are lightened, to change my energy.

In addition, I enjoy the company of my husband, with whom I can talk in a time and space when we don't have to take care of anything else.

Practicing gratitude

Focusing on what I have and being thankful for it helps me to get away from the complaining that comes from thinking about the things I feel I am missing.

Today when I was in physical therapy, there was a young man on crutches who was feeling very bad because he tried to stand up and got a terrible pain that wouldn't let him. After a while, when he was relieved, he grabbed his crutches, leaned on them and stood up, saying he missed being able to walk. It hurt that she felt that way, I thought also of those in wheelchairs and felt that what I have is insignificant. I was grateful to be able to walk.

It is to keep our inner flame burning, not to let it go out, because later we do not know if we will find the fire we need to rekindle it.
