A Best Friend In Your Head

How well are you treating yourself.  How kind is the voice in your head.   Andy Puddicombe, the founder of ‘Headspace’ once said to imagine the following:  You call a friend after a date and explain that 10 minutes into the date, the person got up and said, ‘this isn’t going to work.  good-by.’  Your friend says, ‘of course that person left, why wouldn’t they?  You are ugly and boring!’  Of course a good friend wouldn’t say that but your self-talk says exactly that.  *We need to treat ourselves like a really good friend.”  Have you listened carefully to the voice in your head lately?  Can you practice some kinder self-talk starting today?
