Hey there!
This week’s Thriving Mindfully Monday session focused on self-care sabotage.
Self-care sabotage shows up in your life as conscious and unconscious behaviors, thoughts, and actions that undermine wellness commitments you make and practices you engage in to support your physical, emotional, and mental well-being.
Procrastination and the the thought that I don’t have enough time are my major self-care sabotage examples.
Other self-care sabotage examples include negative self-talk, ditching responsibilities, and perfectionism.
Watch the video below to hear more about my self-care sabotage experiences.
During this week’s Thriving Mindfully Monday session, we explored how self-care sabotage shows up in our Iives with a mindful moment and journaling exercise.
We also used a mindful creativity exercise to express how and what self-care sabotage feels and looks like on paper with drawing and journaling.
At the end of the session, we used mindful journaling to create a coping strategy we can begin using as a self-care intention or affirmation to guide us through our day and week.
Next week, we will revisit self-care sabotage and our self-care intention or affirmation and explore our self-care sweet spot with help from our inner child.
