You're spot on here, Forest. Kicking the fear around the pain, followed by breaking the cycle of fear I had around all sorts of things in my life, was my first step. It takes awareness, and it takes practice!!! I cannot underline the importance of this first step enough - simply being aware of the way that I was scaring myself (pressuring myself, criticizing myself, etc) throughout the day. It helped me take a stand and say that I was done treating myself so harshly. We'll learn more about this as the program continues!
