My first challenge to my
clients is to always catch
yourself when you start
negative self- talk. Smash
those negative words in
their tracks and immediately
shift them to a positive
statement. This is hard in
the beginning and most
likely you will no believe
what ever you tell yourself,
but over time this practise
really pays off, and you
slowly notice things you love
about yourself first!
#BRAINTRAIN
Just as it says, train your
brain. Get on the training
the brain train. LOL.
You get where I am going
with this. Your brain is a
muscle and if you chose to
train it to be negative, you
will think negative
thoughts. Alternatively if
you train yourself to see
things from a positive
place, you will have more
positive thoughts. It really
is that simple, but NOT
easy to do. So like a
workout, commit to time
each day that you list, or
acknowledge positive
things about yourself and
your life!
WOULD I SAY THIS TO....
I could bet all my life savings that
you would NEVER catch yourself
saying what you say to yourself, to
your friends, family, loved ones
etc. Would you?
Would you say to them, "Whoa girl
those stretch marks are huge!"
"Um, I'm just going to crop out
your bottom half because your
thighs are fat" "Of course you take
a second serving like you can't
even control what you put in your
mouth!"
No, no, no... You would never.
Because it sounds horrible. It is
horrible. Yet, we abuse ourselves
with these words every single day.
So start the process I have listed
above, because you do not deserve
to say to yourself, what you would
never say aloud to anyone else!
