Day 20 Have you done anything that makes you proud?

[HattieNC]

Since starting SEP have you done anything that makes you proud?

I'm proud that I'm being kinder to myself or as we southerners say "I'm cutting myself some slack." I'm learning to say no, and that the world won't fall apart if I delegate to someone else. I'm telling my inner child to come back; I miss her and will be nicer to her in the future. I'm proud that instead of blocking emotions I am: inviting them, naming them, and then gently letting them go. I'm proud that when I look in the mirror, I'm starting to like the person looking back. Possibly because she looks like the me I used to be.

Hi, Hattie. You listed some great reasons to be proud of yourself, justifiably. Learning to say no at times is very important. You may miss your inner child who was, but I am certain you are going to like your new self even more. TMS enables us to learn more about ourselves than we ever knew, and we become happier and healthier. Enjoy your weekend to the fullest.
