They’re infinitely curious and find happiness in the smallest things, like eating their favorite snack or seeing a butterfly. They usually notice the small things that others take for granted, and this helps them be even more grateful for the things around them.^{[10]XResearch source}

Don’t be afraid to take risks. If you’re an omega female, you might be more on the reserved and timid side, which can make trying new things and meeting new people a bit scary. However, you might never know whether you like something or click with a person if you don’t step out of your comfort zone every now and then. Instead of just sticking with what you know, practice saying yes to new experiences when you’re given the chance.^{[14]XResearch source}
- Put yourself out there by trying a new hobby. For example, sign up for a cooking class, try a new sport, or get lessons to learn an instrument.
- Some ways to meet new people include volunteering in your community, joining a club, or having your friends introduce you to their friends.
2
Make sure to take care of yourself. While you may be a very caring and empathetic person, remember to prioritize your health and well-being. It can be easy to neglect your own needs when you’re set on helping others, so make a conscious effort to begin new healthy habits to take care of your physical and mental health.^{[15]XResearch source}
- For your physical health, eat healthy, stay hydrated, get enough sleep each night, and exercise throughout the week.
- Take care of your mental health by setting aside time to do relaxing activities, such as reading, listening to music, or going for a walk. Be sure to also meet up with friends and family to maintain your social connections.
3
Slow down every once in a while. As someone with a lot of thoughts and creative ideas, you might find yourself constantly on the move as you jump from one project or idea to another. Remember to take things slow every now and then and allow yourself to just live in the moment. Your ideas will still be there later, so take a break every now and then.^{[16]XResearch source}
- Practice meditating or doing breathing exercises to clear your mind and just focus on the present moment.
- Take a few minutes to list out the things you’re grateful for. This will help ground you and make you focus on the great things happening right now.
4
Open up to the people you trust. As an omega, you might prefer to live a more private life and keep your thoughts and worries to yourself. However, bottling up so many emotions isn’t always the healthiest option. While it might be hard, open up to your friends and family and let them take some of the burden off of your shoulders.^{[17]XResearch source}
- Don’t be afraid to ask others for advice when you need it. Even though you might have lots of great ideas, there’s nothing wrong with leaning on others for support.
- Practice being more open by speaking honestly about your experiences. For example, when something bothers you, mention it to your close friends and talk through how you’re feeling.
