Why we should celebrate stepping into new ‘eras’ of ourselves.
‘By celebrating moving into a new era of ourselves, we acknowledge our journey through life and personal growth’ But these don’t have to be dictated by age – or even external things . They can be a lot more personal.
‘But that doesn’t mean these changing eras stop once we leave education. As adults, eras are usually defined by external influences: jobs, the places we live, the people we spend time with, romantic relationships, the stages of our children’s lives, and the activities we do. ‘It also turns our focus away from regrets and things that may have not turned out as we hoped, and instead looks forward, as we appreciate the gifts our experience will give us.’This might be looking back on the ‘old’ you – maybe even literally by looking at old photos, and recognising that this is a different person.
Psychologist and psychotherapist Nova Cobban explains that celebrating new eras is a way for our minds to positively acknowledge the changes and, in some cases, huge transformations we’ve been through.‘It’s too easy to rush through life without noting how much has already been done and achieved,’ she says.
