Mental Wellness: 4 Toxic Ways We De-Prioritize Self | Unhealthy Self-Sacrificing Behaviours, Part I

#MentalWellness #SelfSacrifice #Values  Hi Everyone!   Welcome to our first segment on Mental Wellness, this week 😊   In today's discussion, we will be talking about how the ways that we self-sacrifice make it hard for us to reach and maintain Mental Wellness in our lives.   In truth, we live in a society that celebrates self-sacrifice, and commends those who deprioritize themselves for others. This societal convention creates a sense of guilt and shame for those of us who try to curb our self-sacrificing behaviours, and put some of our energy towards our own needs.   In this video, we tackle how self-sacrifice can create unhealthy power structures, relationally. While every circumstance is different, it's important to advocate for your needs as a right, not a privilege.   #MentalWellness #SelfSacrifice #Values #SocialNorms #Conventions #ToxicTraits #OnSecondThought #PowerStructures  Do you have any questions?
