😤 I Hate Affirmations

When I was first told to start telling myself affirmations, I rolled my eyes and scoffed at the thought. How could telling myself how awesome I am do anything?

I never believed in affirmations until I actually tried them. This week, you've already started by telling me some of your affirmations, which can help kickstart the process of change.

Our thoughts create our life. What kind of life are you trying to create?

If you didn't add your affirmation, be sure to do so, here.

Enjoy the rest of this week's highlights.

Recovery Coaching

In this week's Recovery Coaching call, we helped Rema navigate the choice to stop taking antidepressants. For over 30 years, Rema has been on antidepressants and is now beginning to taper off. With a flood of feelings beginning to surface, Rema consults the coaching group for guidance on handling uncomfortable feelings that were muted for decades.

Guided Meditation

Meditation is hard. Oftentimes, we can create judgements about ourselves through it.

In this week's meditation with Cole Chance, we learned to find an anchor point in our body to come back to.

Online Meetings

Have you been attending our online meetings? These happen five nights a week. With a fantastic group of people, there's so much connection, support, and camaraderie I've found in this safe space to talk about what's going on in my life.
