Living Well with PMDD

Learning to Tell Yourself "No"


Listen Later

We naturally want WHAT we want, WHEN we want it. But most of us also know that to get everything we want when we want it is not the best thing for us in the long run. 

Learning to say "no" to yourself is vital to changing a long-term habit, a current behavior, or achieving a goal. Heidi shares examples and a four part process to saying "no" to yourself.

Take Aways

  • Saying "no" to yourself is a useful skill to develop.
  • It leads to greater self confidence and peace.
  • Example 1: Long term habit of nail-biting. 
  • Example 2: Current behavior of throwing dishes away instead of washing and reusing them.
  • Example 3: Achieving a goal of being healthier by losing five pounds in the next two months.
  • 4 part process: Desire. Recognize. Decide. Practice.
  • Applying the process to the examples above.
  • Heidi shares about her realizing she made conversations really awkward by how she answered the question, "How are you?" during her husband's first deployment. 
  • She went on to change her response and it made life better overall.
