Reframe the harsh self-talk

How to Apply This
- Try to be mindful of your tone when talking to yourself.
Listen to your inner voice. What is the tone like? What words and phrases do you usually use when talking to yourself? - Whenever you catch yourself speaking harshly and negatively to yourself, take a breath and pause.
Connect to your emotions and thoughts without the need to react. Notice the harsh self-talk, then stop. - Reframe your thoughts and feelings.
Imagine that in front of you, there is someone you deeply care about. Would you be speaking to them the same way as you do with yourself? Reframe what you said to yourself and how you said it as you were talking to a loved one.
