June Busy Women's Retreat - The Stories We Tell Ourselves

WOW!

I mentioned the topic of this retreat to a patient and she exclaimed, "Oh! Did you know there's a whole book about that?"  So, I hopped on Amazon and, sure enough, there's not just one, but several books about the lies women tell themselves and believe!  Does it surprise you?

Take this sampling from the table of contents of Big Fat Lies Women Tell Themselves

I am unlovable
I am not enough
I don't belong
I am damaged goods
If I don't do it, it won't get done
I can't ask for help unless I'm in crisis
Taking care of myself is selfish
If I allow myself to celebrate, the other shoe will drop
It's tolerable
I'm a good girl, I need to be nice
I should be over this loss by now

Ladies!  There are 59 chapters of this book, each dedicated to a different lie we tell ourselves - 59!?
And I'm guessing you could think of a few more... am I right?  I know I've had my share of them...

So how do you drop the story and break free of the limitations that come with the turf?
How can you change something you've told yourself for so long or believe so completely?

I don't know that there's an easy answer, but I do think we can explore and express and start the momentum moving in a healthy, new, and balanced direction. Awareness is step one...

I hope you'll join the discussion. I hope you'll learn about yourself, where you are coming from and where you want to go. Let's drop the stories even for a little while and see how it feels (spoiler alert... it feels SOOOOO good!)
