How to Change Negative Thoughts & Self-Talk, Why it Feels So Hard, and How to Make it Easier

The Healing Sanctuary
​The Podcast

It's important to me to be as welcoming and inclusive as possible to all people of all races, genders, and sexualities. I try to diversify my podcast cover art, and this week's is my first featuring a transgender person. Trans lives are beautiful and valuable, and I am a proud supporter of this community. 

Have you ever tried to change your intrusive thoughts, negative self-talk, or negative beliefs, only to find yourself continuously falling back into the same thoughts, beliefs, and feelings? I'm going to talk to you today about why this happens, why it's not your fault, and what's actually happening in your brain, emotions, and body when you begin a process of profound inner transformation and change.
​
This episode is based on my own personal experience, and I hope it helps you to understand yourself better and why you deserve so much love and compassion. Changing your inner landscape IS hard, and I am going to explain the BIOLOGICAL reasons why this is. This NOT something you imagine, and it has nothing to do with motivation or will power, and everything to do with our brains and how they process information and flow energy.

Changing your thoughts and beliefs takes massive amounts of courage and resilience. Most people do not understand what this process actually entails, and so we will often feel defeated by slow or stalled progress. I'm going to help you to understand why well-intentioned people can make you feel worse, and how to actually bring in self-love and faith in your ability to change.
