Is It Time to Stop Shoulding Yourself?

from Positively Anti-Inflammatory · host Alyssa K. Abrahamson

247. How often do you catch yourself saying “I should…” I should eat healthier, I should exercise more, I should be more productive. Those “shoulds” might feel motivating, but more often they create guilt, self-criticism, and shame that keep us stuck. Tune in this week as I share a fresh reflection and a personal story, then revisit an earlier episode “Stop Shoulding Yourself,” where I explain why “should” is can be a harmful word, how it impacts our wellbeing, and three practical ways to break free from the cycle. If you’ve been feeling weighed down by “shoulds,” this conversation will help you shift toward more trust, compassion, and ease.AND.....If this podcast has inspired you, informed you, or spoken to you in any way, I welcome your support. "Buy me a coffee" and make a contribution here. ​As little as $5 helps nourish the podcast of bringing positively anti-inflammatory to life which is here to help support you on your journey.
