Since starting this TMS journey I’ve recognised the self criticism/ neglect behaviours in so much of what I do.
So today, I put everything/everyone on hold for the morning and I went and got my hair cut! First visit to a salon in years (usually a friend just ‘fits me in for a trim’ at home)
And it felt so good. I felt pampered, the stylist said he’d enjoyed our chatter (fab sense of humour, he made me laugh throughout) plus I looked pretty as I left! The good feeling stayed with me all day. Yes, I had pain before, throughout and after, but I also had a feeling of accomplishment and self worth
And I rebooked
