Episode 54 - Mental Health Check-In: It's Not You, This is Hard

Each month, Still Becoming brings you a Mental Health Check-In episode. These episodes are focused on mental health, emotional health, or personal growth, and involve a short teaching and a few take aways in around 15 to 20 minutes. The idea is to take a therapeutic topic or technique and expand it to help us in our everyday lives.⁣ ⁣ This week we are talking all about the context we are living through in the United States. Even without knowing your specific circumstances - what you are living through right now is incredibly overwhelming. When we forget context, we often turn on and shame ourselves for struggling. ⁣ ⁣ It's ok to be scared and overwhelmed. Now is not the time to judge or critique yourself. This is hard. That's the take away.⁣ ⁣ I hope this episode is validating, and that you walk away with some helpful tips and increased self-compassion. ⁣ To find Still Becoming on Instagram, follow Monica at @monicadicristina.
