Tip of the Day

Establish a healthy source of validation.

Make a “you” section in your daily gratitude journal.
Before seeking external validation, ask yourself, “What do I hope that person tells me?” Then tell it to yourself.
Recognize when you’re judging your feelings.
See yourself as the parent to the child version of you.
Get in the habit of asking yourself, “What do I need right now?”
