🤗 How to sound less blamey

I feel rejected.

If you find yourself saying something like that, try to help yourself be heard more compassionately by saying instead:

I feel hurt.

I feel scared.

I feel angry.

I feel defiant.

And here are some needs you could ask for:

I need belonging.

I need inclusion.

I need closeness.

I need to be seen.

I need acknowledgement.

I need connection.
