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

#MentalWellness #SelfSacrifice #Values  Hi Everyone!   Welcome to our second segment on Mental Wellness, this week 😊   In today's discussion, we will be talking about how sometimes our communities and societies place the expectation on us to self-sacrifice, even when it is sometimes to our own detriment.   Not all communities are created equal. Oftentimes we find ourselves engaging and pouring into communal settings that have fairly traditional ideals as it relates to self-sacrifice and reciprocity.   In this video, we tackle how self-sacrifice can create an unhealthy pressure to conform to communal rules, that do not align with our own. 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?
