Manipulation is when they blame you for your reaction to their toxic behavior but never discuss their disrespect that triggered you

Manipulation can be hard to spot, but here’s a sign: if someone constantly blames you for your reaction to their toxic behavior, but never acknowledges the disrespect that triggered you, they’re manipulating you. ✩₊˚.

They twist the situation to make you feel guilty and avoid taking responsibility for their actions. It’s not your fault for reacting to mistreatment. Healthy relationships involve mutual respect and accountability, not shifting the blame. If someone always turns the focus on how you reacted instead of addressing what they did to cause it, that’s a red flag. ⋆☾⋆

“Ya Allah, aku berlindung kepada-Mu dari sifat gelisah (pesimis), sedih, malas, kikir, pengecut, terlilit hutang, dan keganasan orang lain." 🤲 -Diriwayatkan oleh Anas r.a-

Trust your feelings and recognize when you’re being manipulated. You deserve to be treated with respect and kindness, not made to feel like your reactions are the problem. Always stand up for your worth and don’t let anyone convince you that their bad behavior is your fault.⁺₊✧

Anger and the Power of Release Shaina Tranquilino July 28, 2024

Anger is a natural human emotion, an intense response to perceived wrongs, injustices, or frustrations. However, how we handle anger can significantly impact our well-being and relationships. Traditionally, people might think of channeling their anger into revenge or retaliation, believing it to be a way to restore balance and achieve justice. But this approach often leads to more harm than good, creating an energy of imbalance that can perpetuate a cycle of negativity. A different approach involves releasing anger, which can foster healing, personal growth, and emotional balance.

The Cycle of Revenge and Its Consequences

Revenge might seem satisfying in the heat of the moment, providing a sense of justice or retribution. However, this satisfaction is usually short-lived. Thoughts of revenge can consume our minds, fueling anger and hatred. This emotional turbulence creates an energy of imbalance within us, affecting our mental and physical health. Prolonged anger and resentment can lead to stress, anxiety, and even depression. Moreover, acting on revenge often perpetuates a cycle of negativity, leading to further conflicts and emotional turmoil.

The Power of Releasing Anger

Releasing anger doesn't mean suppressing it or pretending it doesn't exist. It's about acknowledging the emotion, understanding its root cause, and finding healthy ways to let it go. This approach promotes emotional balance and allows us to move forward without being weighed down by negative feelings. Here are some strategies for releasing anger effectively:

1. Acknowledge Your Anger

The first step in releasing anger is to acknowledge it. Denying or suppressing anger can intensify the emotion over time. Recognize that it's okay to feel angry and that this emotion is a natural response to certain situations. Give yourself permission to feel without judgment.

2. Understand the Root Cause

Take a moment to reflect on why you're angry. Is it a specific action, event, or person that triggered your anger? Understanding the root cause can help you address the underlying issue rather than just the surface emotion. This insight can also prevent future occurrences of similar anger triggers.

3. Express Your Feelings

Find a healthy outlet to express your anger. This could be talking to a trusted friend or therapist, writing in a journal, or engaging in physical activity. The goal is to release the pent-up energy in a way that doesn't harm yourself or others.

4. Practice Mindfulness and Meditation

Mindfulness and meditation can be powerful tools for managing anger. These practices help you stay present, observe your emotions without judgment, and develop a sense of inner calm. Regular mindfulness practice can reduce the intensity of anger and improve your overall emotional resilience.

5. Cultivate Empathy and Compassion

Try to see the situation from the other person's perspective. Cultivating empathy and compassion can soften your anger and help you understand the motivations behind others' actions. This doesn't mean excusing harmful behavior, but it can provide a broader context that aids in forgiveness and letting go.

6. Engage in Physical Activity

Physical activity is a great way to release the physical tension associated with anger. Whether it's going for a run, practicing yoga, or hitting a punching bag, exercise can help dissipate the intense energy of anger and leave you feeling more balanced.

7. Create a Peaceful Environment

Surround yourself with a calming environment. This could involve decluttering your space, spending time in nature, or engaging in activities that bring you joy and relaxation. A peaceful environment can help soothe your mind and reduce the intensity of anger.

The Benefits of Releasing Anger

By releasing anger, you create space for positive emotions and experiences. Letting go of anger can lead to:

Improved Mental Health: Reduced stress, anxiety, and depression.

Better Relationships: More harmonious interactions and less conflict.

Enhanced Physical Health: Lower blood pressure and reduced risk of stress-related illnesses.

Personal Growth: Greater emotional resilience and self-awareness.

Inner Peace: A deeper sense of calm and contentment.

Releasing anger is a powerful act of self-care and emotional maturity. While it may require effort and practice, the benefits far outweigh the temporary satisfaction of revenge. By acknowledging, understanding, and releasing your anger, you can create a more balanced and fulfilling life. Remember, true strength lies in the ability to let go and find peace within yourself.

how to loose belly fat

Excess lower belly fat can be frustrating and challenging to get rid of, but with the right approach, achieving a flat and toned belly is within your reach. In this article, we’ll walk you through 7 simple yet effective steps to shed lower belly fat and achieve the results you desire.

Healthy Eating Habits: A balanced and nutritious diet is the cornerstone of any successful weight loss journey. Focus on incorporating whole foods like fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats into your meals. Minimize processed foods, sugary snacks, and excessive sodium intake.

Portion Control and Regular Meals: Practicing portion control helps prevent overeating. Instead of a few large meals, opt for smaller, frequent meals throughout the day. This approach can help maintain steady blood sugar levels and keep your metabolism active.

Stay Hydrated: Water plays a vital role in weight loss. Drinking plenty of water helps curb hunger, supports digestion, and boosts metabolism. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water daily and consider incorporating herbal teas as well.

Effective Cardiovascular Exercises: Cardio workouts are excellent for burning calories and promoting fat loss. Engage in activities like brisk walking, jogging, cycling, or swimming for at least 150 minutes per week. These exercises target overall body fat, including the lower belly area.

Targeted Core Exercises: Specific core exercises can help tone and tighten your lower belly muscles. Include exercises like leg raises, bicycle crunches, and planks into your routine. These moves strengthen your core, enhancing your overall appearance.

Incorporate Strength Training: Building lean muscle mass increases your resting metabolic rate, aiding in fat loss. Incorporate strength training exercises like squats, lunges, and push-ups to sculpt your entire body, including the lower abdomen.

Prioritize Rest and Manage Stress: Adequate sleep and stress management are essential for weight loss. Aim for 7–9 hours of quality sleep per night to support your body’s recovery and metabolism. Practice stress-reduction techniques such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing to keep cortisol levels in check.

Reflections on building a better me

Exercise is not optional. Mental satisfaction from completing yet another workout cannot be overstated. Physical satisfaction from feeling good and enjoying your body in clothes, the mirror, and photos cannot be overstated. Stop messing around, stop info hoarding, go exercise. And tomorrow. And the next day. And the next day. And the next day.

Looking your best depending on circumstances (ie, casual, dressy, bedtime, etc) is not optional. External confidence from taking care of your appearance top to bottom and loving what you see in the mirror is highly valuable.

You feel better when you eat better. You’re proud of yourself when you eat better.

Hobbies, hobbies, hobbies. Do you feel embarrassed when someone asks what you do all day and you can’t come up with an honest answer that doesn’t make you sound like a loser with no life? You need hobbies. Some that are outdoors, some that are indoors. Some that are taxing, some that are relaxing. You will enjoy life more, become a more well-rounded individual, and have positive ways to spend your time rather than racking up more hours on your phone. Get some hobbies. Plural.

Procrastination and laziness should disgust you. You shouldn’t be able to relate. You should strive to be above that. You like yourself better when you complete your tasks and get things done in a timely manner. You’re proud of yourself when you’re on a roll and have a productive streak. You’re impressed by productive people and no one likes a lazy bum.

Decide what you want from life and pursue it ruthlessly. Don’t take advice from people who don’t have the life you want, unless they were once on your desired path and fell off. Even then, you listen to them when they say what NOT to do (learning from their mistakes) but clearly they don’t know what TO do bc they didn’t make it to the finish line. Take “do this” advice from people who crossed the finish line and have what you want. You’ll find that the amount of input that is actually valuable to you has suddenly dwindled. Good. Less chatter in your ears.

Get yourself in order before you go around critiquing everyone else. Get YOUR face in order. Get YOUR body right. Get YOUR money up. Get YOUR style in order. Get YOUR relationship together.

Stop coming to everyone for validation like a toddler. Validate yourself. Do you like it? Okay then. Are you over it? Okay then. Stop being so weak. Stand tall, lead yourself. Stop being such a follower.

Be a good person. Help your family, lend a hand to strangers, give back, say sorry, do things for loved ones just because, show affection, work things out, watch your mouth, speak respectfully, remember that the world owes you nothing. Stop being an insufferable freak.

You can’t change anyone but yourself. Get yourself in order and be a good role model. That’s all you can do. Give people advice when they want it and then go about your business. Get yourself in order. Get yourself in order.

Outrage content is the lowest form of entertainment. Engage in things that make you happy or educate you. Doom scrolling only leads to doom. Don’t like this person? Don’t click on their articles or videos. Unfollow and block. Don’t like these people? Leave their spaces. You don’t have to be outraged every day.

Always keep your word to yourself. Make a plan, stick to the plan, always deliver. If you can’t be reliable for yourself then who can you be reliable for?

To My Almost... If one day we go back to being strangers, it's okay. That doesn't mean I hate you, or I forget about you. It just simply means that I am giving you back your peace. I want you to live your life the way you deserve it. Meeting you and falling in love with you wasn't a mistake. It was God's way of giving us a lesson that we can carry for the rest of our lives. °˖𓍢ִ໋🌷͙֒✧°.🎀༘⋆ The memories we shared will forever be treasured. The pain that we caused each other will remain in our scars. But that scar will not always be ugly. Some of it was tears, but mostly laughter. So don't worry, I'l always choose to remember the happy times, and bury the painful ones. °˖𓍢ִ໋🌷͙֒✧°.🎀༘⋆ I am now slowly forgiving myself for the things I wasn't supposed to do. l pray to God to give me the courage to move on with my life without holding on to the promises that has been broken. I pray for strength to face each day without any regrets.

Discovering Grenada: My Birthday Adventure

This September, I decided to spend my birthday somewhere special: Grenada. It was my first time visiting, and as someone who grew up in Trinidad and Tobago, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I’ve always heard stories and saw videos about the island, but nothing could have prepared me for the beauty that awaited me. Grenada truly took me by surprise, and I’m so glad I made the trip. One of the…

365 days.

2022 was a year full of change. I began to remember who I am after being lost for a very long time. I accomplished a lot and wanted to fight back against complacency. So, I decided to start over. This was one of the hardest decisions I had ever made. It ended up being life saving.

2023, I stood on business. I set my boundaries and finally enforced them. I pushed myself in my career, and figured out the next steps on my educational journey. I had fun, so much fun, and I rediscovered the things that bring me true joy. I remembered who I am and what I deserve. I remembered that time waits for no one, and that my son deserves a mother who is happy, who is loved, and who is strong.

2024 is the start of the rest of my life. Working, prospering, loving, and accomplishing everything I’ve ever wanted. Helping others, and being a mom my son can be proud of is my main focus. 2023 was all about me, my mental health and happiness. 2024 I am focusing on my impact. My legacy. My destiny. I am focused on the world.

Cheers.
