Also on the be well buzz website -

How much stress are you carrying around? Do you feel burdened by life’s circumstances and emotional issues? Becoming more grounded and happy starts with letting go of worry and stress. I learned this in my own journey, through overcoming drug addictions, healing myself from depression, and walking away form a career in corporate to follow my heart and be a successful writer and life coach. In the process, I had to let go of a lot of things to become the person I am today.

It is vital that we remind ourselves that we are human. No one is perfect. We all make mistakes, say the wrong things, and make incorrect assumptions. When you mess up, it does not do any good to punish yourself with harsh self-talk. Forgive yourself. Say it out loud, write it in your journal, email yourself. However you want to do it, just make sure you say the words “I forgive you.” And then, move forward.

Sometimes the simple searches are best ... a book at the library called self acceptance ...

Leads to this site - the first 2 catch my eye -

Do you accept yourself?

It might sound like an odd question; after all, what does it even mean to accept yourself? Don’t we all accept ourselves as a regular part of living our day-to-day lives?

As it turns out, self-acceptance is not an automatic or default state. Many of us have trouble accepting ourselves exactly as we are. It’s not so hard to accept the good parts of ourselves, but what about the rest? Surely we shouldn’t accept our flaws and failures?

In fact, that’s exactly what we should do! Read on to learn why we need to accept ourselves, the good and the bad, and to get some practical suggestions on how to do it.

"We are, in a certain way, defined as much by our potential as by its expression. There is a great difference between an acorn and a little bit of wood carved into an acorn shape, a difference not always readily apparent to the naked eye. The difference is there even if the acorn never has the opportunity to plant itself and become an oak. Remembering its potential changes the way in which we think of the acorn and react to it. How we value it. If an acorn were conscious, knowing its potential would change the way that it might think and feel about itself."

Wishing you all the best!
