I have been really quickly been able to stop the negative self talk and beating myself up that I used to always do. I always used self-deprecating humor as a shield, but I am avoiding that now.
The self-compassion is an area where I need to keep working. I have done some reading and have another book waiting at the library for me. I think I am getting better at it, but it is hard.
It does indeed sound magical when you are able to go from believing that you are worthy to trusting it. I havent reached that place yet, but I look forward to getting there some day shortly.
