Показать описание
There are a number of things that make aspects of self-care difficult. We know what we should do but it can be a real struggle to do it.

If you struggle with starting or maintaining self-care or self-help things, then there's something getting in the way. Your own past experiences can make it hard for you to relax, notice yourself, remember things, or feel anything.

These are all coping mechanisms that have been useful or necessary at some point in your life. It's really important to know what you're up against and why things are so difficult for you. It's hard to change patterns of behaviour, it's even harder to shift the negative views of yourself.

It's today video, Krista Morten & Catriona Morten sit down to discuss all the things that get in the way, from self-limiting beliefs and recognising your own patterns of behaviour, and what you can do to manage these and begin to make real changes for yourself.

Once we understand what makes things difficult for us, we can start to build slower, more solid steps that are sustainable and healthy.

This video helped me. I'm struggling with brushing my teeth. Every morning I tell myself that I need to work on my project first. But in this video I heard... What's more important than my oral health, especially with research pointing to links of bad oral health and heart disease. Certainly not that project. I'm knocking down one excuse at a time. I don't like standing at the sink because it aggravates my arthritis... So I walk whilst brushing. I hate cold water, so I turn on the hot tap. I hate drooling, so I spit more often. So as I write this, I'm thinking... Why haven't you gotten up to brush... What's the real reason. ... The real reason is that if I have nasty teeth, no one would want to get close enough to hurt me. If I don't comb my hair, no one would want to get close enough to hurt me. Every time I got hurt, it was when I wasn't looking. Yes, I can protect myself, but everytime l'm feeling comfortable and let my guard down, BLAM! ... So I'll make a new rule. As long as I'm not leaving the house today, I can beautify myself. Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵. Take care of yourselves 😷.
