Changes can be both a good or bad thing depending on your circumstance and what the change in question is. Last year was probably one of the toughest years for me and I am still trying to find my way back to normality.
Handling major life transitions & changes isn’t easy at all especially if they come unexpectedly. In today’s post, I wanted to share with you some ways on how to handle those major transitions in life as well as an update as to why I haven’t been as active on my blog for the past couple of months. Without further ado, let’s jump into the post!
Les changements peuvent être à la fois une bonne ou une mauvaise chose en fonction de votre situation et de la nature du changement en question. L’année dernière a probablement été l’une des années les plus difficiles pour moi et j’essaie toujours de retrouver le chemin de la normalité.
Gérer les transitions et les changements majeurs de la vie n’est pas du tout facile, surtout s’ils surviennent de manière inattendue. Dans l’article d’aujourd’hui, je voulais partager avec vous quelques moyens de gérer ces transitions majeures dans la vie ainsi qu’une mise à jour sur les raisons pour lesquelles je n’ai pas été active sur mon blog au cours des derniers mois. Sans plus tarder, passons à l’article !

DISTANCE ISN’T THE FULL ANSWER
When going through major life changes, many people distance themselves from their loved ones or even seclude themselves to the point acquaintances or co-workers/colleagues can notice a difference in their actions and demeanour. Some people would say that you have to do what works for you during that time whereas others might argue that talking & letting other people in will ease your weight off your shoulders.
I would say the longer you distance yourself from the world, the harder it would be to get back into that same place. For example, based on my personal experience I genuinely couldn’t be social on my blog since so many things were happening around me in my personal life and I didn’t want the action of replying to comments & interacting with my readers & fellow bloggers to turn into a task or worse a chore.
I would always tell myself that I would do it this week or next week but now, it’s been a couple of months and I am still trying to find my footing. I know many who completely go MIA for a month or two and there is no way to reach or contact them which is much scarier because you don’t know if they are alright. Now that I am trying to find my way back, I would say that informing your loved ones or even sharing an update no matter how short or concise it is, is better than not saying anything.

FIND YOUR COPING MECHANISMS
So many people have different coping mechanisms, what works for one person might not work for another and vice versa. With that said, you have to find a way to create your own peace and moment of balance otherwise everything around you would feel way too overwhelming.
I know it’s easier said than done and when you are going through a big change in your life whether it be positive or negative, or a mix of both – you aren’t in the mood to do anything at all and even if you do something it doesn’t change or improve anything either.
However, you have to find something that helps you find your inner peace for at least a couple of minutes, something that calms and grounds you. For instance, this could be one of your favourite hobbies, spending quality time with a loved one, going on a walk, etc.

TRUST IN YOURSELF
This might be cliche but you have to trust the process and hope that everything will work out for the best. It’s something I always hated hearing but as I get older, I realise there are only a few things in life you are in control of and even those things aren’t really in your hands and can change any minute. Having faith will help you move forward and when it comes to navigating a big life transition, you need hope & faith both within yourself and the universe.
