"I'm silly for feeling this way."
"Other people have it worse."
"Some people have war in their countries."
"Look at me and my first world problems."
Have you ever said things like these to yourself during times of stress or sadness?
If so, it's totally understandable!
We're all programmed to disregard our mental health by a capitalist society that benefits when we push through, grind it out, and shame ourselves for not having high vibes 100% of the time.
Well, no more!
In this week's episode, I'll share some of my own recent experiences with stress and mental health and how I finally realized I needed to stop gaslighting myself and take my own emotions seriously.
And I'll share some tips for breaking free of the matrix so you can create space and permission to regulate your nervous system and feel better.
