Do you often apologise when someone bumps into you with their cart? I used to do the same, but I've worked on breaking that habit. Unnecessary apologies send a message to our subconscious that we're at fault. Words have power, and "sorry" carries weight. Instead, try replacing apologies with lighthearted phrases like "oops" or "shall we dance?" I'd love to hear about your experiences with this change!More from Moira in "Cherishing Me: Letters to a Motherless Child" https://www.amazon.com/Cherishing-Me-Letters-Motherless-Child/dp/B0BVXV6ZWT/

Do you ever replay conversations in your mind, worrying about what you said or how someone might have felt? Rumination often comes from our inner child’s fear of judgment, and when we replay conversations in our heads, it’s often our inner child looking for reassurance. Notice your inner child within and meet them with compassion rather than criticism.🩵
