But then I say, let's look at the rest of your house.

Let's look at the foundation.

What is the foundation on which this house, your whole self-esteem, your whole sense of self and character is built on?

And self-compassion is not woo-woo.

There is so much science behind it.

When we look at self-compassion involves saying to yourself, I'm aware of these negative thoughts.

I'm just going to be aware of them.

No one is saying that they're true.

I'm just going to be aware of all of the negative things I'm saying to myself.

then on some level, there's going to be a certain amount of acceptance that I think I'm a shitty person.

All right, now what?

What are you going to do?

It's like, imagine you're talking to somebody else.

You're like, all right, bring it on.

Say what you have to say about me.

Once there's a certain amount of acceptance of the negative self-talk, but also a desire to want to rewrite this, you then start to say, you have to say to yourself some form of self-compassionate, like rewriting the scripts.

I have been dealt too many cards.

I am going through a lot of changes in my body right now.

It is not my fault.

This is very unfair.
