Step back and get a different perspective
from Creating Connection · host Kim Ross
It's easy to get caught up in the little details of our life and not see the whole picture. If you want a practical example of perspective, do a jigsaw puzzle, (or even a wasgij puzzle for an extra challenge). Notice what happens when you stop doing the puzzle and take a break - you will often find things are clearer when you go back to it. Or ever had someone come along and know straight way where a piece can go that you've been trying to fit somewhere for ages? That's the difference perspective can make! Using perspective is part of cognitive self-care, and like connectedness, cognitive self-care is one of the key pillars to your wellbeing. Perspective allows you to see what is going on in your life with clarity - what are you really thinking and feeling? What truly matters? How can you be seen, heard and valued? Connection is a key part of your self-care road map; of your own personal wellbeing plan. In this series we focus on Connection, as well as other self-care measures - Cognitive self-care, Emotional self-care, Physical self-care, and Meaning. If you are ready for a new perspective on self-care and connection subscribe to be kept up to date with the latest podcasts. If improving your self-care is part of your New Year's resolution - have a sneak peak at my new online program. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a world where loneliness and isolation are epidemic, how do you find your way back to connection?
