BECOMING... with Joy Iseki

In this second episode of the pain series, I shared more light on how by being present we can deal with our pains.

Here, I shared how the seemly negative moment in our lives exist for a reason and do in some ways serve us. Too many people are suffering because of how they handle painful memories and events. But pain need not become suffering if we can handle it well. #howtohandlepain #howtoovercomepain #turningpainintogain #thecounsellor

This is the last of our series on avoiding and overcoming Depression. Most of the issues we had talked about in the previous episodes affecting our emotions persists because we had refused to let go. This episode focused on how we can let go of a phase in our life and move on. Let go!

In this episode, I shared how we are not what had happened to us. For many victims of abusive behaviour, self blame is very constant. Blaming yourself for what had happened can tend to make you feel that you deserved what had happened to you. This kind of attitude isn't empowering. #avoidingdepression #overcomingdepression #whattodowhenyouaredown #depression #mentalhealthawareness #healingwithjoyiseki #healing

This segment is a continuation of the last episode with emphasis on how self criticism can lead to depression. Here, I shared the better way of using self compassion to embrace ourselves and our efforts. #overcomingdepression #selfcriticism #howselfcompassionhelpsus #mentalhealthawareness #healingwithjoyiseki #thecounsellor #Joyiseki

The first of my series on depression awareness, this episode focused on definition for depression, and difference between depression and sadness. I also shared how comparison leads to depression and what ways we can avoid comparing ourselves to others in order to avoid being sad, or unnecessarily too critical of ourselves. #overcomingdepression #depressionawareness #becomingjoyiseki #thecounsellor

One of the most important factor for enjoying good relationship is in loving ourselves, first. That gives us a great foundation for wholeness and the right energies.

Episode one is titled embracing your story. It deals with the little things we do when we newly meet someone who may be interested in us.
