Press Pause Podcast

Today we are doing a self care check in!

We ask questions and as you answer them we also answer them ourselves. 

It's not the first time we've done this and we find it very beneficial. Mainly because we answer the questions with you. We enjoy being transparent and sharing our own self care journeys with you to remind you we are the same and have our own challanges and triumphs. 

Hopefully with us being honest with ourselves, it encourages you to do the same. For this is when we see the greatest shifts and pattern breakers.

In this powerful episode, we dive into the often overlooked foundation of true self-care - your self image.

How do you really see yourself? What story are you still telling yourself about who you are? And how is that image shaping the way you show up every day?

We explore, the connection between self-image and the choices we make, where our self-image is formed and how it gets distorted, and some ways to rewrite the way you see yourself.

You deserve to look in the mirror, literally and figuratively, and recognise a person of worth, strength, and beauty, just as you are.

Come and join us for a indepth chat about realigning your inner conversation with yourself to build a strong self-image that will help you on your self-care journey.

In today's episdoe, we explore what truly means to find your superpower - not the one the world told you to have, but the one that's always been inside you.

Whether you're rebuilding after a life change, feeling disconnected from who you are or simply ready to own your worth in a deeper way, this conversation is for you.

We talk about how to recognise your superpower, where you can discover things about yourself by inquirying into different times in your life, what others say about you and what you naturally love to do. These can hold glimpses of what your unique way of being brings to the world and there lies some answers.

Your superpower isn't about being the strongest or the busiest - it's about being aligned, aware and unapologetically you.

How often do you get scared about something and instead of letting fear decide who you get to be, you seize the moment and over come the illusion of fear.

There are many benefits that we receive when we create a practice of over coming the fears we face in everyday life. As Martin Luther King so brilliantly spoke, “It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.”

We are naturally drawn to things that brighten our light and because shinning our light can be scary we don’t realise sometimes how important it is to over come this fear, to reach our greatest potential in life and within our self care practices. 

What things can be scary for you? Is it speaking up? Being honest about how you feel with others or even yourself? Is it going to a meditation group or breath work class? Is it putting yourself first in general? Putting yourself first can be scary because it means letting go of controlling everything cos lets be honest, there's always something to be done. How can you step away, let go, and be more fearless in your self care practices and every day life?

Today we felt like doing something different.

We wanted to ask you some questions and actually get you to write down your answers and to see what comes up for you. In all areas of feeling stuck. Those times when you feel like you are in a rut, the same results keep happening, or maybe you have lost inspiration around your goals.

We are also going to participate and answer the same questions and share our answers with you.

We are all on a self care journey no matter how much knowledge you have. Today we hope to be relatable and neutral so you can see everyone is always working on something.

One of the most important things to consider when we are talking about self care is your ability to communicate. How serious do you take the way you communicate with others around you including yourself?

Have you come across situations that haven't worked out in your favour and thought, maybe I sounded different to how I heard myself? 

How we communicate determines so many of our results, understandings, mis understandings, and can make all the difference when you are trying to look after yourself in new ways. Communicating to the people around you is so vital to achieving your goals. While at the same time, being honest with yourself is just as important to see reality for what it is. 

Sometimes keeping things to yourself and not sharing with others can also be important, depending on the goal that needs to be achieved. However when you are needing the support of others those difficult conversations came become the make or break towards achieving what you set out to do.

Today we talk about how crucial it is to always evolve and work on your communication skills, why, and also how listening is just as important when it comes to communicating to actually receive the information you need to formulate the best conversation possible.
