Friends, want to make shifts that could enhance your life?
Randy, our Relationship Counsellor, would suggest if you answered "yes" ...and let's face it - that's most of us!...
Take a look at your relationships.
Think of the relationships in your life as having levels of depth.
Like this triangle above.
Decide what level of depth is appropriate for the people in your life.
Think of your relationships within these concentric triangles of depth.
The outer triangles are more your acquaintance-type of relationships.
Work your way inward to family and friends and to where the innermost triangle is that relationship that you have with yourself.
And THIS relationship should be the most honest, the most accepting, and the most empathetic of all.
And just maybe - not everyone has earned the right to be in those
inner triangles -
anyone come to mind?!
Building self-trust with our own "self" is pivotal to this process.
Reflect on these questions...
Where are you most struggling today - which relationships do you say "yes" to when really you'd like to say "no" or "not right now".
Do you have strong NO's but then somehow find yourself getting talked into "the thing"?
How do you hold yourself accountable for your goals AND also offer yourself self-compassion?
What does your inner voice sound like on a typical day?
How does your inner critic (who might be one of those inner voices)
show up?
How do you stand up to that inner critic?
Is there any other way than adversarial to stand up to it?
Why not have a "Check in" with Randy?
