Mental Health: The Power & Impact of Choosing Yourself | Navigating Healing & Investing in Self-Love

#MentalHealth #ChoosingSelf #Healing  0:00 - 2:30 - Intro  2:30 - 17:34 - Choosing Yourself  17:34  - Wrap Up   Hello Everyone!  Welcome to our second segment on Mental Health, this week 😊   In today's conversation, we're talking about giving ourselves permission to choose ourselves.   Guilt-free.   Many of us struggle with self-care, or embracing the healing we know we need, because of the impact it will have on those around us. We navigate in a reality where we make the choice to deprioritize ourselves, until a more convenient time comes up.   Sometimes we are hoping that people around us will give us the time-out we need, as though choosing ourselves was only appropriate when we have been given the permission to do so. Emotional and psychological wounds need our time and attention to heal. Not exercising the choice to actively focus on yourself, when you know you're the one who needs YOUR attention, shouldn't be the choice we live to regret.   While societal pressures make it an unnecessarily difficult choice to make, it's important that it's a journey that we take, as we focus on rebuilding a healthy relationship with ourselves.   #mentalhealth #recovery #selfcare #compassion #healing #choice #selflove #prioritizeyourself    Do you have any questions regarding our resilience-building, parent-child workshops?
