Do you experience a lot of negative self talk? Do you avoid things a lot? Procrastinate through mindless scrolling? and chronically worry? Then you might be self sabotaging and you don't even know it!
Self sabotage occurs when we destroy ourselves physically, mentally, or emotionally to hinder our own success and wellbeing by undermining personal goals and values.. it can be conscious behaviour or unconscious, and presents itself in many different facets of a persons everyday life ( I.e romantic relationships, career, education, family relationships) (Brenner, 2019).
In part 1, we understand what it really means to be self sabotaging, we uncover what these behaviours and patterns may look like and share our own personal experiences.. we also encourage you to sit down and journal / list some of the behaviours.
In part 2 coming next week, we will dive into the science behind it and understand why our brains are wired this way. We also uncover how can we get better at identifying when we are self sabotaging and break the pattern?
So pour yourself a matcha and join us! 💚 If you want to reach out to us or see any recent updates you can follow us on @the.matcha.diaries!
