As women, we deserve to constantly improve on ourselves, grow stronger and more confident with time. Unfortunately, we often get stuck in vicious cycles, including self-sabotaging thoughts that manifest into negative behavior patterns. These can range from binge eating, substance abuse, or telling yourself ‘I am not good enough’… struggling to remove ourselves from toxic relationships, not prioritizing ourselves, allowing people to disrespect or mistreat us, or simply failing to chase our passions. These are all destructive behaviors, some more severe than others, but all stemming from the same core negative thoughts.
Today we dive deep into where our negative thought patterns stem from, how they replay in our minds and reflect in our behavior patterns, and decision making as adults. This information helps us to uncover the WHY we do what we do, and how that has become ingrained in us as a part of our biography. We discuss the stressors that can trigger these thoughts, and move into how these can create health issues, our biology.
The exciting news is that there are some very simple ways that we can elevate our thoughts and feelings. Prayer, meditation, meaningful affirmations, walking on the beach, eating well, conscious breathing exercises, absorbing sunshine, listening to soothing music and dancing … these are all simple, free things, that we can do to ease our stress, calm our nervous systems and reduce our negative reactions.
At the end of the day we must remember that these internal beliefs are simply not true, and we need to give them attention, so that they can be healed, and we can have a happier, healthier life.
Dr Karen Simons is our debut interview guest who leads us through these discussions. She took a leap of faith from a two-decade career in a senior education position, to pursue a double doctorate and become a Metaphysical Healer and Transpersonal Psychotherapist. She has spent the last two decades helping people to find peace, happiness, and get healthier on all levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. She leaves it all on the table when delving into these issues that can challenge us for life, or we can acknowledge them, heal them, and progress forward to have healthy and happy futures.
