Forgetting & Remembering | A Part of the Self Love Journey

Remembering who we are is an important part of reclaiming ourselves, but the journey to reclaiming ourselves is a process of forgetting & remembering. 

This week Belinda & Sonya are talking about an important part of the self love journey & the road to more self-compassion.

They share their experiences with the lifelong practice of remembering themselves (and forgetting themselves), and why finding grace for ourselves is foundational to having compassion for others.

Join us as we discuss: 

• 02:24 How losing and remembering ourselves defines the cyclical process of reclaiming ourselves.
• 14:42 Why our perception of others can trick us into thinking we’re the only ones experiencing negative emotions.
• 15:10 The ways that human responses to grief and loss are labelled as character flaws.
• 17:02 Why being amazing doesn’t mean being perfect.
• 24:26 How we abandon ourselves when we’re most vulnerable by judging ourselves for experiencing our feelings.
