TODAY'S LEARNING
Overcome Codependency

Codependency refers to a pattern of relationships in which one individual becomes overly dependent on their companion emotionally and, at times, psychologically. This dependence is frequently the result of an innate desire to provide for others or a dread of being abandoned or alone.

One partner in a codependent relationship may be willing to forego their own desires, requirements, and even well-being in order to provide for and satisfy the other. This may appear to be affection and devotion, but it is quite the opposite. Unlike healthy relationships, where support and care are mutual and balanced, codependency tilts the scale heavily. One person does most of the giving, often feeling responsible for the other's happiness, problems, and choices.

Codependency may manifest in a multitude of ways. Some may find themselves constantly trying to fix or save their partner, especially if the partner is dealing with issues like addiction or mental health challenges. Others may find it difficult to establish boundaries or say no for fear of upsetting the equilibrium of the relationship. Frequently, the self-esteem of the codependent individual is intricately linked to their capacity to bring joy to their companion or resolve their challenges.

How to tell if you’re in a codependent relationship: 7 signs

1. You want to help others too often

2. You assume responsibility for others

3. You give more than you receive

4. You fear abandonment

5. Your self-worth comes from others’ happiness

6. You care too much what others think

7. You fear change

How to stop being codependent in a relationship:

1. Acknowledge the issue

Commence by identifying and acknowledging within yourself that codependence may be present in the dynamics of your relationship. Acquiring self-awareness is an essential initial phase in effecting constructive transformations.

2. Challenge negative thoughts to shift your perspective

Recognize and challenge the negative beliefs and notions that you hold concerning yourself and your relationship. Substitute them with self-affirming, constructive beliefs. Engaging in the mental exercise of reframing thoughts can facilitate a change in viewpoint and a reduction in codependent behaviors.

3. Step back from taking things personally

Recognize that your value is not determined by the actions and emotions of your partner. It is not within your purview to alter or exert control over the obstacles and feelings that each individual faces.

4. Communicate clearly to set healthy boundaries

Establish unambiguous limits in your partnership. Express your requirements, constraints, and anticipations. In order for a relationship to be healthy, mutual respect and understanding require clear boundaries. Consult with a mental health professional if you are uncertain about the definition of appropriate boundaries.

POSITIVE NEWS OF THE DAY

The Car Fueled Entirely by the Sun Takes Huge Step Towards Production

One of the most hotly anticipated concept cars in recent history, the Aptera solar-powered car took a large step towards reality recently as the first-ever production-grade body arrived at the company’s headquarters in San Diego.

This three-wheeler is advertised as containing 34 square feet of solar paneling that actually powers the car as it drives or while it’s parked, but so many aspects are completely new in a commercial automobile designed for mass production that extra precautions and preparations are needed before it can hit the road.

“We had so much fun last week celebrating a company milestone—the arrival of Aptera’s first production body in San Diego,” the company wrote in a post on X. “Now Team Aptera is back to work finalizing the cable routing, connectors, and placement of components in preparation for our first [production-intent] builds.”

FOOD FOR THE SOUL
Ayurveda Recipes: Coconut Beet Soup

Great for building rakta dhatu because it is high in fiber and fats. To all people who don't like beets: they get sweeter the longer you cook them. I add a dash of turbinado or raw sugar to help them along. Coconut also cuts the bitterness and adds a smooth, rich flavor. Pungent ginger complements and freshens the heaviness of coconut.

Ingredients

1 c BEETS

1/4 tsp BLACK PEPPER

1/4 c COCONUT FLAKES

2 tbsp COCONUT OIL

1/2 inch GINGER (FRESH)

1/4 tsp SALT (MINERAL SALT)

Instructions

Chop the beets and puree with equal quantity water in a blender. Add all ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for a half hour.
