Episode 52 - Binge eating recovery and self-love
Manage episode 307866291 series 3008842
I felt so ashamed when I looked in the mirror!!
"I'm a failure because I can't Stop Eating" I remember saying to myself over and over again, I would even make a joke about it to my friends, "here I go, eating my feelings, again"
That kind of self-talk started spilling into other areas of my life, I felt unworthy to ask for promotions, I would stay in jobs where I was expecting to work ridiculous hours with no overtime payment, I stayed because I felt I wasn't worthy of finding something better.
The old me didn't believe in fluffy things like self-love? "Who needs self-love, what a crock of shit?" I would say. Deep down I resisted self-love because I felt I wasn't worthy of love, especially being loved by myself.
Self-love is one of the best things you can do for yourself.
Not sure how to even begin? Here are some of the steps I took to mend my relationship with myself through small acts of self-love.
