Self-sabotaging Behaviours

There are few people who don’t have some form of self-sabotaging behaviour these days. Be it excessive social media checking, overeating, working in overdrive mode, smoking, drugs, alcohol – even simply not leaving enough time to get ready so that every morning we rush ourselves and the kids out the door. Anything that leaves us feeling less than amazing within ourselves is having a detrimental effect to our well-being on some level or another. Even if we know this, which in most cases we do, why do we stay in this seemingly perpetual cycle of self-sabotage? And if we do manage to break the cycle for even one day, how do we make lasting shifts in our behaviour? Wellbeing Coach, Lucy Dahill and Complementary Health Practitioner Katie Walls explore what’s behind this set-up and provide tips on how to break away from it once and for all.
