In yesterday’s blog post, I shared that I was giving up negative self talk for the month of January.
In yesterday’s Coping and Healing group, we talked about negative self talk. The group members wrote down familiar negative self talk and shared theirs with the rest of the group. Most of us tore up the paper with our negative self talk and threw the pieces away.
My negative self talk included:
You’re too selfish.
You don’t do enough.
You’re too old.
You make too many mistakes.
You’re stupid.
It felt good to share that negative self talk, rip the paper into tiny pieces and throw it all away.
Here and now, I am letting go of negative self talk about this AI-arranged version of my original song Everybody’s Somebody’s Asshole, which I just released.
I’m also letting go of negative self talk about today’s blog post, including the images I have to share.
.
What are your thoughts and feelings about negative self talk?
Thanks to all who help me let go of my negative self talk, including YOU!
