How do I stop myself from taking issues and comments to heart? I literally take things way too personal. How do I stop it?

My personal favorite mantra is “you are not obligated to upset yourself for the ‘greater good’ “. I also tend to take things really personally, but I’ve learned through therapy and mentorship that part of protecting your peace is not picking every battle. I like to do a somatic exercise, breathe in my feelings, hold them and the breath for a moment, then exhale them out and give myself permission to move on

It’s usually your internal clock. Investigate the causes and feelings surrounding them. You may just find who you really are or who you are genuinely meant to be through those experiences. Remain calm and aware of these circumstances. These are what we call triggers.

I really don’t understand how people can so mean to others. What happened to basic and open communication with others? Words are hurtful!
