Ep 240: Tuesday Tidbit: Is always and never thinking getting in your way?

In this Tuesday Tidbit episode of SelfKind with Erica Webb (that's me!) I'm sharing why always and never thinking could be getting in the way of a kind, compassionate relationship with yourself and with self-care. This certainly isn't the first time we've talked about all or nothing thinking here on the Podcast, but I think this particular way of framing the idea is helpful - because it relates to the words we use when we talk about what we do.In this episode you will hear:Why your choice of language can impact how you feel and your relationship with self-careThe helpful advice I was given recently that helped me see this in a new wayWhy the goal of considering always and never thinking isn't to find the 'right' way to talk to or motivate yourself, but rather to limit the impact that your imperfect action has on your self-talk and relationshipLanguage that might be more supportive than always and never.The content I share on this platform is for informational and educational purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
