Ep 109: Inspiration? Or fuel for a guilt and shame spiral?

from SelfKind: Conversations in self-care, kindness and compassion for highly sensitive people · host Erica

Ok, so you're looking to move your body more frequently, but the HOW and WHAT is proving elusive. So you look to see what others are doing for inspiration. Some of them swear by getting up at 5am. Some are hard-core believers in 'the plan' (e.g. putting it in the calendar). Others have their own proven method that is guaranteed to work. But are any of these 'right' for you?There's a fine line indeed between watching what others do for inspiration versus allowing it to fuel a guilt and shame spiral when you don't find it to be a good fit. So how do we find our own best fit? That's what we're talking about today! Tune in to find out why it helps to expect resistance when we're trying something new, and why it's important to navigate the distinction between resistance and a poor fit.
