Make Yourself a Priority This Year by Connecting to the Goddess Within

Updated: Jun 28, 2022



People throughout the globe were deeply impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic, which continues to be a major cause of stress. Our mental and physical health is suffering due to the economic crisis. Because of these reasons, as well as the continual drumbeat of a crisis that shows no signs of abating, this situation is unique. The American Psychological Association acknowledges we are in the midst of a mental health crisis that might have far-reaching effects on our country's health and well-being for years to come. Based on these facts, self-prioritization is critical.


Selfishness is one of the numerous labels pessimists use to describe "prioritizing oneself." On the other hand, optimists refer to it as self-love and self-care. Few individuals are aware of the importance of prioritizing one's own well-being and the well-being of others.


Most individuals, including you, tend to put themselves last in their thoughts. In addition, society views self-preservation as selfishness. There is a limit to how far you can go to satisfy everyone. If you don't, you'll suffer and still be a disappointment to others around you. As a result, you must put yourself first, no matter who is around you. Here are eight suggestions for setting priorities in your life.



Defining The Limits


Setting limits is integral to self-acceptance since it helps clarify what is and is not acceptable behaviour. Setting boundaries demonstrates that you place enough value on yourself. For example, others will unintentionally hurt your sentiments if you don't create boundaries. When you're afraid of creating limits, you'll be inconsolable and keep your feelings to yourself. People around you will always put their own interests ahead of yours, whether or not it is in your best interests. The Cancer Tarot would advise you to exercise caution when it comes to relying on others.


So, how can you establish your own limits, then? To begin, you must establish boundaries and decide what you can and cannot manage. The people closest to you should be aware of your intellectual, emotional, and physical limits. Assertiveness is the greatest strategy for establishing healthy personal boundaries. Speak out if your buddies can't decipher what's written on the wall. When they cross the line, tell them. You'll feel great about yourself if you put your emotions first.

Normalize Using the Word "No"


You must learn to say no in order to prioritize yourself this year. It's difficult for many people, including you, to say no. As a consequence, they give up on their own ambitions in order to fulfil someone else's. There is nothing wrong with saying no, and you shouldn't feel bad about it.

Respect grows in direct proportion to the number of times you decline favours you are unable to fulfil. The refusal to accept more work indicates that you are already overworked and want to concentrate on delivering high-quality work. As a result, you'll become more trustworthy and self-assured. As a result, you'll have more time for self-improvement and socializing with friends and family.

Take a Breather


To the extent that you need to challenge yourself, let your inner self tell you when it's time to rest. If you're tired and in need of a break, resist the urge to push yourself. In order to avoid encouraging sloth, how do you take breaks? To begin, you need to set attainable objectives that aren't going to strain you to the limit. You may also take a moment to celebrate your achievements. You'll have more energy to do more, and you'll also be able to take a well-deserved vacation. Taking breaks and reflecting is the ultimate path that will show you how to embody goddess energy.


Allowing yourself to take a break whenever possible is vital to increasing your efficiency and production. In addition, it keeps your mind clear by promoting creativity. Yoga and other self-improvement activities may be done at this time to recharge your batteries.

Make Time For The Things You Like


Regardless of how hectic your schedule is, you must make time for the things you like. As a result, many people feel guilty for spending time doing something they like. How, exactly, are you culpable? Managing your time and setting daily objectives are two of the most successful methods. After fulfilling your daily goals, you should reward yourself by doing something you like. Making a daily routine helps you stay focused and, consequently, increases your output.


The first step is connecting with the goddess within, making you feel good about your self-worth. You have a goddess within you who requires you to make time for her demands. Meditation, exercise, outdoor exploration, and other activities may help you connect with your inner self. A lack of this link, on the other hand, causes tension and illness.

Embrace a Positive Atmosphere


Having a negative outlook on life may have a negative impact on your productivity and personal well-being. However, good energy stimulates you to develop, whereas negative energy discourages you from doing so. The good and negative energy you're experiencing may be a function of the people or things around you. Get rid of all the things that are stifling your ability to get things done.


Be intentional about prioritizing relationships that have a good influence on your life. A support system that helps you prioritize and accomplish your objectives. There's no limit to what you can do with just a little bit of positivity.


The Chariot tarot card has the power to infuse your life with good energy. This card depicts a goddess who has a strong work ethic and a can-do attitude. Despite her hectic schedule, she is a hard worker who always gets things done in a timely manner. In the job, she will be a success because she is secure in her talents and has the capacity to make wise judgments. In the face of setbacks, she maintains her composure and will be able to go through any difficulties. She has the self-control to deal with unpleasant circumstances, but she also recognizes that in order for things to improve, individuals need to give up.



Get The Amount Of Sleep You Need


If you don't get enough sleep, you'll be haunted by ghosts, according to traditional folklore. The only thing that should take precedence over sleep is work. A false sense of guilt typically accompanies Oversleeping. If you don't get enough sleep, you won't be able to get things done. Stronger bones and less anxiety and despair are two benefits of getting enough sleep.


If you haven't been getting enough sleep at night, it's time to make some changes. Take care of yourself first and foremost rather than focusing on your career or personal aspirations. Getting a good night's sleep can improve goddess energy in you. As a consequence, you'll be able to do more with ease.

Practice Shakti Mantras


As a Sanskrit mantra discipline, SHAKTI MANTRAS may develop your spiritual talents, alleviate karmic burdens, improve health, and promote financial success, all while helping you to live in harmony with the universe. Using the power of shakti mantras for the goddess within, you can:


  • Improve your spiritual abilities - Reduce the weight of your karma

  • Improve your health, and you'll have more money in the bank.

  • Be at one with all of creation.


Use the Kunzite Necklace Pendant with your mantras to help alleviate anxiety, depression and other mental health issues. It restores the energy flow in chakras, matching their

location.



Don't Try to Be Perfect


Accept your flaws and the fact that no matter how hard you try, you will never be flawless. Several kinds of literature have discussed how crucial it is to accept one's uniqueness. In the same way, self-improvement advocates claim that we may still improve upon our current selves. While all situations are plausible, having a healthy sense of proportion is critical. Maintaining a peaceful state of mind is essential in promoting healing female energy. Choose peace above perfection when the choice is between the two. Instead of striving for perfection, put yourself first and embrace your flaws.


Your healthy sense of balance will be substantially improved when you embrace tools such as rose quartz. While many are aware of its strong connection to feminine energy and intuition, there is so much more to this symbol. The stone aids in the opening of the heart chakra, as well as in the healing of trauma or a breakup. If you're looking for a spouse, it may help you locate one. Using it at home may also improve the quality of life.



Conclusion


Choosing between prioritizing yourself and your career or any other activity should never have to be made. However, if you ever find yourself in a situation like this, always put yourself first. Prioritizing isn't simple, but using the above-mentioned methods will make it much easier. One of the most challenging obstacles to overcome is your tendency to feel guilty and seem self-centered, but by being persistent, you can overcome this.
