"In a society that convinces us that our parents are a hindrance and a burden. We often forget that our parents are in reality our most precious allies "

I've seen persons who are capable of abandoning their parents when they start to get old. But then, maybe it's because they had a difficult childhood, because of abusive treatment, we're not in other people's lives. And that type of situations are not concerned by my reflection. Many people say that they are in no way indebted to their parents, that they owe them nothing, that they have no responsibility towards them. And they say these words with sush pride, such disdain...it's incomprehensible.....

The Sensitive Subject : Parents

Your parents are the ones brought you up. Took care of you when you couldn't, loved you (and there's nothing purer than the love of a mother or a father). Accepted you as you are, forgiven your mistakes, guided you when you were lost. They're the ones who helped you when you fell. When you reach a crisis, they're the only ones who'll reach out to you without you even having to ask. And if you do, they won't hesitate for a second. THE ONLY PEOPLE YOU CAN TURN AND WALK AWAY FROM, WHEN YOU COME BACK THEY'LL WELCOME YOU WITH OPEN ARMS AND HEARTS. In a society that convinces us that parents are...

Only love byyyeee🌷﻿Never forget to think because the truth will never be handed to you on a silver platter.

Read, think by yourself and find the truth...

Understand yourself and those around you.

"Love is to realize there is truth beyond yourself"

You might be willing to make sacrifices or compromise for the sake of the relationship.</li></ul>

According to this book, to overcome irrational fear, it is essential to recognize that fear is often rooted in the uncertainty of the future. By acknowledging the infinite possibilities for the future and focusing on the more likely positive outcomes, we can shift our perspective from fear to freedom. Additionally, it is important to understand that fear begins with the thought "What if" and continues with negative predictions about the future. By reframing these thoughts and embracing uncertainty, we can dissolve irrational fear.

How can we overcome irrational fear?

Furthermore, practicing mindfulness and self-awareness can help in overcoming irrational fear by allowing us to recognize when fear is taking hold and consciously choosing to focus on more positive and realistic possibilities.

Who Ordered This Truckload of Dung?

When sensory overload happens, your brain is overwhelmed with information from your five senses and can’t process it correctly.

Your ADHD brain is prone to being overstimulated. Once you get into that state, your brain starts telling your body that you need to escape and you lose the ability to prioritize.

Sensory Overload

Help prevent overwhelm by:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">holding conversations in a quieter area during a party</li><li class="ql-align-justify">making a shopping list before you go to the store</li><li class="ql-align-justify">plotting out low stimulus locations that you can take refuge in</li><li class="ql-align-justify">telling a trusted friend your plan so that they can help</li><li class="ql-align-justify">getting enough sleep</li><li class="ql-align-justify">having a balanced diet</li><li class="ql-align-justify">regular exercise</li><li class="ql-align-justify">strong and healthy relationships</li><li class="ql-align-justify">meditation and mindfulness</li><li class="ql-align-justify">appropriately prescribed medication</li></ul>

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of regulation

Temperature: Changing your body changes your blood pressure and heart rate. Some cold water on your face or holding an ice cube can help.Intense Exercise: Allows you to direct the tightly wound energy into a task and trick your body into completing the stress response cycle.Paced Breathing: Can slow down your natural breathing rhythm and allow your body to focus on something other than the stimulus.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify"><a href="https://youtu.be/7tyBAv_xxLo">Figure 8 Breathing</a></li><li class="ql-align-justify"><a href="https://youtu.be/vGMWWZVcCIo">Hand Breath</a></li></ul>Progressive Muscle Relaxation: Relieves muscle tension and also focuses your attention on something other than the stimulus.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify"><a href="https://youtu.be/SNqYG95j_UQ">Progressive Muscle Relaxation Walkthrough</a></li></ul>

Help regulate by remembering TIPP

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

When you are hit with a bout of overstimulation, sometimes you feel the urge to lash out at those around you. If you can take a breath and briefly hold it at the height of your emotion, it will peak, and hopefully enough of your rational brain will kick in to prevent you from saying or doing something that you'll regret.

Getting over the peak

The first thing you should do when you are having a big emotional response is get away from the cause.The second thing is calm yourself with TIPP.The third thing is to name your feeling. This helps create distance and perspective.The last thing is to soothe yourself. You've just experienced something hard and could use a hug. Give yourself some comfort by experiencing something nice for your five senses. Look at something beautiful, taste something delicious, hear something encouraging, touch something comforting, and smell something pleasing.

Stop the cycle

One of the common symptoms of ADHD that I experience is sensory overload. This article helped me understand what is happening and some tips on how to regulate during and attempt to prevent the overload from occurring.

If you live with ADHD, you might feel overwhelmed easily. Learning a few coping tips, and making these into a routine, can help.

How to Manage Feeling Overwhelmed with ADHD

The thankful heart is always close to the creative forces of the universe, causing count less blessings to flow toward it by the law of reciprocal relationship, based on a cosmic law of action and reaction.

The Thank You Technique

"A very simple way of securing this (impregnation of the subconscious mind) is to condense the idea which is to be the object of suggestion, to sum it up in a brief phrase which can be readily graven on the memory, and to repeat it over and over again as a lullaby."

The Baudoin Technique

1. Realise that correct direction given to your subconscious mind will heal your mind and body.2. Develop a definite plan for turning over your requests or desires to your subconscious mind.3. Imagine the end desired and feel its reality. Follow it through and you will get definite results.4. Decide what belief is. Know that belief is a thought in your mind and what you think you create.5.Believe in perfect health, prosperity, peace, wealth and divine guidance.6. Great and noble thoughts upon which you habitually dwell become great acts.

Healings By Subconscious Mind

When you affirm health, harmony, and peace for yourself or another, and when you realize these are universal principles of your own being, you will rearrange the negative patterns of your subconscious mind based on your faith and understanding of that which you affirm.

The Affirmative Method

1. Your subconscious is the builder of your body and is on job 24 hours a day. You interfere with its life giving patterns negative thinking.2. Charge your subconscious with the task of evolving an answer any problem, prior to sleep and it will answer you.3. Watch your thoughts. Every thought accepted as true is sent your brain to your solar plexus, your abdominal brain and brought into your world as a reality.4. Know that you can remake yourself by giving a new blueprint to your subconscious mind.5. The tendency of your subconscious is always lifeward. Your job is with your conscious mind.

Life Ward Tendency Of Subconscious Mind -1

6. You build a new body every eleven months. Change your body by changing your thoughts and keeping them changed.7. It is normal to be healthy. It is abnormal to be ill. There is within the innate principle of harmony.8. Thoughts of jealousy, fear, worry, and anxiety tear down and destroy your nerves and glands bringing about mental and physical diseases of all kinds.9. What you affirm consciously and feel as true will be made manifest in your mind, body and affairs. Affirm the good and enter into the joy of living.

Life Ward Tendency Of Subconscious Mind -2

<ol><li>You must remember whenever your subconscious mind accepts an idea; it immediately begins to execute it.</li><li>Consequently, if you use it negatively, it brings trouble, failure, and confusion. When you use it constructively, it brings guidance , freedom and peace of mind.</li><li>In order to overcome failure is to get your subconscious to accept your idea or request by feeling its reality now, and the law of your mind will do the rest.</li></ol>

The Power of Your Subconscious Mind

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Distractions cost us time, and like all actions, they are spurred by the desire to escape discomfort.</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">If we want to master distraction, we must learn to deal with discomfort.  </li></ul>

Time management is Pain management

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Schedule time for yourself first. You are at the center of 3 life domains. Without allocating time for yourself, the other two domains suffer.</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Input is much more certain than outcome. When it comes to living the life you want, making sure you allocate time to living your values is the only thing you should focus on.</li></ul>

Control the Inputs, not the Outcomes

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">External triggers often lead to distraction. Cues in our environment like the pings, dings, and rings from devices, as well as interruptions from other people, frequently take us off track.</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">External triggers aren’t always harmful. If an external trigger leads us to traction, it serves us.</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">We must ask ourselves: Is this trigger serving me, or am I serving it? Then we can hack back the external triggers that don’t serve us.</li></ul>

Ask the Critical Question

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Being indistractable does not only require keeping distractions out. It also necessitates reining ourselves in.</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Precommitments can reduce the likelihood of distraction. They help us stick with decisions we’ve made in advance.</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Precommitments should only be used after the other three indistractable strategies have already been applied. Don’t skip the first three steps. </li></ul>

The Power of Precommitments

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Identity greatly influences our behavior. People tend to align their actions with how they see themselves. • An identity pact is a precommitment to a self-image. You can prevent distraction by acting in line with your identity.</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Become a noun. By assigning yourself a moniker, you increase the likelihood of following through with behaviors consistent with what you call yourself. Call yourself “indistractable.”</li></ul> <ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Adopt rituals. Repeating mantras, keeping a timeboxed schedule, or performing other routines reinforces your identity and influences your future actions.</li></ul>

Important highlights from the book "Indistractable"

"Indistractable provides a framework that will deliver the focus you need to get results." —James Clear, author of Atomic Habits "If you value your time, your focus, or your relationships, this book is essential reading. I'm putting these ideas into practice." —Jonathan Haidt, author of The Righteous Mind   National Bestseller Winner of the Outstanding Works of Literature (OWL) Award Included in the Top 5 Best Personal Development Books of the Year by Audible Included in the Top 20 Best Business and Leadership Books of the Year by Amazon Featured in The Amazon Book Review Newsletter, January 2020 Goodreads Best Science & Technology of 2019 Finalist   You sit down at your desk to work on an important project, but a notification on your phone interrupts your morning. Later, as you're about to get back to work, a colleague taps you on the shoulder to chat. At home, screens get in the way of quality time with your family. Another day goes by, and once again, your most important personal and professional goals are put on hold. What would be possible if you followed through on your best intentions? What could you accomplish if you could stay focused? What if you had the power to become "indistractable?" International bestselling author, former Stanford lecturer, and behavioral design expert, Nir Eyal, wrote Silicon Valley's handbook for making technology habit-forming. Five years after publishing Hooked, Eyal reveals distraction's Achilles' heel in his groundbreaking new book. In Indistractable, Eyal reveals the hidden psychology driving us to distraction. He describes why solving the problem is not as simple as swearing off our devices: Abstinence is impractical and often makes us want more. Eyal lays bare the secret of finally doing what you say you will do with a four-step, research-backed model. Indistractable reveals the key to getting the best out of technology, without letting it get the best of us. Inside, Eyal overturns conventional wisdom and reveals:    • Why distraction at work is a symptom of a dysfunctional company culture—and how to fix it    • What really drives human behavior and why "time management is pain management"    • Why your relationships (and your sex life) depend on you becoming indistractable    • How to raise indistractable children in an increasingly distracting world Empowering and optimistic, Indistractable provides practical, novel techniques to control your time and attention—helping you live the life you really want.

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

Happiness is not something readymade. It comes from your own actions.

The secret of happiness is to count your blessings while others are adding up their troubles.
