Your Journal Prompts:

What is your relationship with yourself like?

What are some of your deepest beliefs about yourself? (Even if they don’t feel true logically, they might feel true in your heart, belly, or in a part of you.)

Where do these beliefs come from?

What are some of your Inner Critic’s favorite lines?

Do you ever offer yourself compassion? How does it feel?

This week’s guest host is Ellen, who writes ROAR Healing Relationship Trauma on Substack. She's helping us explore one of the most important relationships in our lives: the relationship we have with ourselves. She shares how to identify trauma in your relationship with Self and how to begin to heal this, working through the process with journaling.
