Ways to tenderly touch the pain under envy:
-Notice + name it:

Envy might first feel like burning in your chest. It might look like intensely comparing yourself to someone else and then obsessively strategizing how to get what they have or be more like them. Oh, hey envy! + https://twitter.com/kjramseywrites/status/1250510720870961152

-Acknowledge the need within your envy:

Maybe you feel unnoticed, forgotten, and like you don't matter. Maybe you feel afraid that life won't get better.

You are a human with a heart. You're allowed to hurt. +

-Tend the wound instead of trying to wish it away.

Journal about how you feel. Be really honest with God. Name what's going on inside you to someone you trust. +

Pain is asking you to pay attention to yourself like you are valuable. And sometimes it most needs to be acknowledged in order to be soothed.
