104: Willpower will NEVER work but THIS does

from Beyond Skin Picking & Hair Pulling · host Raffaela

You've tried time and time again to "just stop" picking, pulling, and biting at your body.But if willpower were really the solution, something would have changed a LONG time ago.So either you're a broken human being with no hope of ever feeling better or living better...Or you're simply going about this the wrong way.The first one we fear to be the truth. The second one is the actual truth.The problem is not that you are a fundamentally flawed human being. It's that you've misunderstood how your brain works, why you engage in this behaviour, and what it takes to heal from it.And to be fair, you haven't really "misunderstood"; you've been misinformed or haven't yet had guidance from someone who deeply understands the intricacies of what you're going through.That absolutely makes things harder. No wonder you feel stuck!It's time to remedy this and share with you what you're really searching for when you pick, pull, and bite at your body so that you can finally move forward in a way that lasts.💌Share your story - Book your FREE BFPA* Support Call with me🌟Download your FREE Guide to Stop Skin Picking Using Somatics📝FREE Holistic Skin Picking & Hair Pulling Assessment - (this is no longer available.
