The voice inside our head that diminishes us and exhausts us deserves to be put in her place. She needs a name, so we can scold her when she pipes up.
Mine shall be called: Heather.
“Heather, you are so negative.”
“Heather, my hair looks perfectly fine.”
“Heather, I’m working on it, mind your own business.”
“Why are you so negative, Heather?”
And to further the correction…
“Heather, it doesn’t matter if I am skinny in your eyes – what matters is whether or not I am healthy in mine.”
**This is part of a series that uses “beautiful you – a daily guide to Radical Self-Acceptance” by Rosie Molinary as a model for prompts to look inward. Here’s why.**
