Hi Brooke,
I just did the exercise for Self pity, It was the right time!
Last week I was feeling really bad, I was feeling stressed, not good enough, I bufferd a lot ,
over eating and over”biting myself”.
The exercise for self pity helped me clarify what is happening inside me.
I felt that self pity, coming from a place of scarcity, is like a black hole inside me.
This hole needs to be filled with something.
Today I felt self pity after a meeting at work, because I felt I am not good enough. I started buffering off my protocol. I suddenly felt like I needed to fill a hole inside me!
After that, I had the idea to do the exercise for self pity. When I was asked to overcome self pity with its opposite , self- esteem, I felt that I could fill that black hole with love for myself instead of food!
What is your opinion about that idea? Can I use the model to fill myself with love and how?
Thank you for your help and support.
