Boring Self-Care and Ending Avoidance Tending Your Life

    • Personal Journals

In this episode, I'm tackling one of my most frequently asked questions from inside my courses. It sounds something like, "This all sounds great, but there are things in my life that [for whatever reason] I can't avoid."
Or it looks like using self-care to cover up that thing we desperately want to avoid—and using it as a way to numb ourselves out. Neither is ideal.
In this episode, we’ll be talking about dissolving our avoidance; “boring” self-care; reframing things we can’t avoid; and the devotional practice of our everyday, not-so-pretty work.
5 Steps to Stop Avoidance: Tell yourself the truth about what you're avoiding—and that you're avoiding Remind yourself of your power and your ability to do hard things Resist the urge to numb yourself or run away Make a list of what you're avoiding and take baby steps to deal with them Celebrate!
