And if you are acknowledging them, you're much more likely to continue to do them. It actually creates momentum.""Don't forget that we also internalize a lot of critical voices from the past and from media and from other influences. If you can turn that on its head and welcome in this nicer voice, this gentler voice, this voice that's more supportive, then you're going to call it more often."CONTACT THE HOSTWebsite |  www.thereikihealingcoach.com Instagram | @sophia_i_got_igInstagram | @createlifeyourwayFacebook | www.facebook.com/sophia.e.754LinkedIn | Sophia Elcock Hosted on Acast.
