Ep 148: Getting closer to your discomfort to find sustainability in your movement and self-care practices

Discomfort. We don't love it, do we? And it's fair enough that when we feel it, we try to get away from it as rapidly as possible.But when it comes to creating sustainable movement and self-care practices that support us to feel good, how can getting CLOSER to our discomfort actually help?That's exactly what we're talking about today on SelfKind with me, Erica Webb. When it comes to movement and self-care it can honestly feel like a relentless pursuit toward an ideal that we can never manage to achieve. But what if it could be simpler? And we could get there without the guilt and shame that are hallmarks of the all or nothing mindset?Join me to hear:> how getting closer to our discomfort can support us to see what's really going on, and what could be different> why relying on guilt-tripping yourself or defaulting to 'I guess I'm just not cut out for it' is problematic and inconsistent with sustainable change.Want to join me and a bunch of awesome humans in Simple + Sustainable: 30 days of support and exploration to discover what sustainable and SelfKind movement looks like for you, now?
