If you woke up one day and feel like “I don’t really like myself,” this is for you. Self-respect is not just about having an air of confidence as you interact with others, it’s also being respectful to yourself, internally. As a means to get to this place, I wanted to offer you a simple prescription: think of your body and what I’ll call your dominant thought narrative as being a wise, second self. A friendly and compassionate voice. This second self can aid you and ground you as you move through the chatter that is your anxiety or perhaps at times negative chatter and self-analysis. We have to learn how to become a consistent friend to ourselves and that is how we start to really like who we are, regardless of the external. Like meeting a new friend, this can start at any time in your life – it just requires a commitment. This episode is also about when we cannot get to a particular behavior change – seeing that there is a block behind that: a blindness to a lie we are believing. These “feelings stones” create misalignments and block us from actualizing change because we can’t see where we are unable to accept something as true. I have an example from my own life to explain this better – for me that misalignment is blowing up at my kids/how i feel about that and why I have been unable to stop.This is the book <a href="https://amzn.to/4gj4Tyf">Chatter</a> that I mentioned: https://amzn.to/4gj4Tyf Support this week’s sponsors! <a href="https://prolonlife.com/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=Podcast&utm_campaign=audio&utm_content=HELPMEBEME">Prolon</a>Just in time for the new year, Prolon is offering Help Me Be Me listeners FIFTEEN PERCENT off their 5-day nutrition program for your post-holiday glow-up when you go to <a href="https://prolonlife.com/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=Podcast&utm_campaign=audio&utm_content=HELPMEBEME">ProlonLife.com/HELPMEBEME</a> <a href="https://gabb.com/promo/HELPMEBEME?utm_source=Veritone&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_content=helpmebeme">Gabb</a>Gabb is offering twenty-five dollars off any device—with no contract required.
