"Why Can't We Do What's Good for Us?"
Welcome to this week's self-compassion video.

Even with the best of intentions, sometimes we just can't make ourself do the right thing, the kindest thing—i.e. what's truly good for us. 

Like giving up the bad habit. Or changing that negative thought pattern. Or not allowing a harmful emotion to run us. We're stuck in a rut and even though we know it's TIME to break through, we simply can't. Or we try with all our might to escape its clutches but we don't. In frustration, we keep doing the same things over and over again. 

Does this sound familiar?

Today's video explains what the problem is and how we can begin to solve it so we can live more kindly and gently with ourselves.

In today's video, I mention "The Self-Compassion Plunge." The NEW way I am journeying one-on-one with people to BREAKTHROUGH the harmful habit or life-limiting pattern; to finally be free of the pain and suffering it causes. The key is applying self-compassion while "unpacking the story" behind your particular issue. Voila! We have lift-off!

Holding you in the Light, sending you Love,
