Our inner critic can really take a toll on our self-esteem, our bodies, and nervous system. Let’s think about and move toward a more compassionate self. 💛

Such a helpful visualization of how to observe and create distance from our thoughts. Thoughts and beliefs about ourselves can feel so overwhelming or consuming. Once we learn how to mindfully observe our thoughts without automatically believing them to be true, our thoughts tend to not carry as much weight.

I saw this post from on Instagram and it really resonated with me. It’s such a neat visual of what it can feel like to be carrying the weight of so many heavy emotions. Therapy can be a space where we can sort out and name them. It’s a meaningful experience being able to understand our needs and emotions, and can open the door to be able to show ourselves more compassion.

What do you feel like you’re carrying today? Take a moment, sit with it, and try to name what you’re experiencing. In response to that, how can you care for yourself today?
