The 2 Wolves The "Parable of the Wolf" is an old Cherokee story, that serves as a morale guidance and  lessons around human nature, inner conflict and the choices we make. The parable is often  used to highlight the importance of mindfulness, self-awareness, and personal responsibility  in shaping our character and lives.  This parable is designed to teach us that inside of us is a healthy balance of 2 forces, one  negative and destructive, the other positive and nurturing. The choices we make, our  thoughts, actions, and concentration, determine which force will govern our lives. By  "feeding" the good wolf, we cultivate qualities like compassion, love, and wisdom.  Conversely, by "feeding" the bad wolf, we allow negativity and harmful traits to grow,  ultimately, the choice is ours to me, we are in control! Takeaway  It is important to note, positive and negative emotions are a part of us all, and they are  healthy! We decide which part of us we want to nourish, so instead of fleeing from your  emotions, process them and harness the good wolf within you, only you have the power to  make that change!   Disclaimer - Please note, all advice given is based on various healthcare models that have  been proven to support patients with sustainability and backed by Public Health England  (PHE). Nonetheless, you should run any changes to your routine by your GP as they are your  primary carer, it is also important that any other healthcare professionals involved in your  care is involved in your goal planning. Don't forget they hold your medical records and  would be familiar with you; this will help everyone to be on the same page and will also  enable you to plan more realistically and not overestimate your capacity!
