🍵 5 Steps to heal painful Emotions | When will we learn to treat ourselves better? 🍵 Dream#32

Dear Dreamer,

I think we should treat painful emotions like we would treat an illness.

In this video, I want to share 5 steps to heal painful emotions with you and why I think we need to learn to treat ourselves better.

Practicing self-love and self-care is often overlooked. But it is incredibly important and will help us to learn how to deal with painful emotions like anger, frustration, anxiety, or disappointment.

I decided to take some time off of social media because I felt rather anxious, disappointed, and insecure in the last couple of weeks. I also had a really bad cold that kept me in my bed for days. But it made me think about how I treat myself.

Four years ago I would have powered through my cold and pushed all of my painful emotions aside to stay productive. That led to my breakdown and constant struggle with anxiety and other negative feelings.
I am glad that I seem to have learned quite a bit. I still have a long way to go though. There are areas in my life where I am rather cruel to myself and my body. But at least now I am aware of that fact and work on it.

I hope you enjoy this video.

Here´s to dreams, my friend.
Here's to dreams.

Love Lexi

How to make Cough Drops

❗ WARNING ❗
Please be extremely careful while making cough drops. The mixture gets very hot and you can easily get severe burns.

Ingredients:
100g of sugar (I used xylitol, it is better for your teeth and has fewer calories)
100ml of strong herbal tea
Herbs (I used thyme and sage, both are great for relieving coughing)
A glass of cold water
Halth a lemon

You also need
- parchment paper
- a pot and spoon (careful wooden ones might burn)
- a silicon form (optional)
- an airtight jar for storing

Instructions:
- mortar some of your herbs (powder)
- brew a strong tea with the rest
- add sugar, tea, and lemon to your pot
- put the heat on 6/10
- stir frequently otherwise the sugar will burn
- it takes around 30 minutes till the mixture is thick enough
- you can occasionally test it by dropping some in a glass of cold water, it will dissolve at first, then get sticky. The mixture is ready once you can knead the cooled-down mixture. Brew it rather longer than shorter, otherwise, it won´t get firm.
- take the pot off the heat and add the mortared herbs to it
- then add the mixture either to your silicon form or make little drops with a spoon onto the parchment paper
- scatter some of the powdered herbs on top so the cough drops won´t stick together
- if you like you can form the drops into little balls (PLEASE MAKE SURE THE MIXTURE IS COOL ENOUGH TO DO SO, SO YOU WON`T GET BURNED).
- it takes 24 hours before the mixture is firm (if it does not get firm you haven´t cooked the mixture long enough, it might take you a couple of tries before you get it right)
- store the cough drops in an airtight jar
