13162: Self-Care And The Hills You Choose To Die On

Hey there, hero!Taking care of ourselves is paramount - as actors, voice talent, writers and other creatives, we don't have an office infirmary and an in-person support community when we are in need of self-care.And one area where your personal mental and physical health can be threatened is when you choose to disagree with someone's point of view...especially in online communication.The anonymity of social media emboldens some to take very big liberties with the basics of good manners - we can be attacked from many angles without the ability to defend ourselves (or sometimes even know who is doing the attacking).But rest assured that when you make a commitment to a tool or process, something that you know works for you, know that you can feel so much better by choosing to ignore the attacks altogether.Don't respond at all if it's going to cause you grief. Just...move on.I'll give you some basic self-care choices you can make to move on and feel sooooo much better.Does this make sense? Do you enjoy the power of deciding not to engage?
