Self-Care for People Who Are Too Considerate

Being considerate of others is important for smooth interpersonal relationships.

However, those who always suppress their own needs to prioritize others, or who constantly anticipate and act on what others want, should be careful.

The body's energy, known as 'Qi,' is consumed when used.

When Qi is deficient,
you lack vitality, tire easily, become lethargic, and sigh frequently.

Meeting people, talking, and even moving around become burdensome.
You lose the strength to deflect or protect yourself from unpleasant comments, leaving you vulnerable to being hurt and dwelling on what was said.

Furthermore, worrying about various things also consumes blood.

Since Qi and blood circulate through the body as a pair, if one becomes deficient, the other will also become deficient as the body tries to compensate.

When blood is deficient,
you become prone to feeling anxious and uneasy. Your sleep becomes shallow, leading to insomnia.

Your ability to think also declines, making you feel overwhelmed by sadness and pain.

If you experience these symptoms, just rest.

Qi and blood are produced while you sleep at night.
Since staying awake only leads to further consumption,

just go to sleep and recharge your Qi and blood.

Review your lifestyle to see if you are overworking, moving too much, neglecting your meals, or suffering from sleep deprivation.

Because your energy to protect yourself from external stimuli is also depleted, distressing news on TV or social media can directly hurt your heart.

Block out information, find your own personal joys, and spend time in peace and tranquility.

Relax your mind and let your spirit rest.

Even if you feel lethargic and don't want to meet or talk to anyone, please don't think of yourself as a failure.

It is simply because you are exhausted from over-consuming your energy.

Being able to consider others' feelings and act proactively is a wonderful ability.

When you notice the signs from your body saying, 'Oh no, I'm depleted!', please put yourself first and take care of yourself.


Go home early and just go to sleep.

It may seem childish, but natural and simple things are the best medicine for the body and mind.
