Episode 6: Quit Talking Down to Yourself

In this episode, I reflect on the lies I previously told myself. I also invite you to replace the lies you tell yourself with the truth of who you are. Each of us is an amazing mystery, loveable and able to love. Let’s start with a healthy love for ourselves. These are the candles I mentioned in this episode. I love them because they help me stay focused without depending on technology. FYI – this episode is not sponsored; I’m sharing it simply because I’m in love with these candles. I buy them from a local store to avoid paying for shipping, but fair warning – they’re pricey! Daiyo 40 minutes candles Daiyo 55 minutes candles Questions for Reflection: Do I talk down to myself? What are those phrases, those lies I sometimes tell myself about who I am? Only reflect on this question if you can be tender with yourself; otherwise, it’s best to skip this one. Reflecting on a moment from my childhood when I spoke down to myself, what is the truth my adult self can tell her today? How would I respond if I heard someone I love saying those words to themselves? Reflect on the sincerity behind this response. How can I be sincere and compassionate when I talk down to myself? How would I describe my relationship with time if it were a person in my life? Is it a strained relationship? Can I value it as a gift? Identify an act of trust I’ve recently extended to someone, and that I wasn’t disappointed by. Pause to express gratitude for that moment.
