Many of us have formed habit patterns of self judgement and harshness towards ourselves. Often we have given ourselves up to it. If this has been your experience, or that of someone you know, what does this create inside of us? Is it helpful? Harshness does not benefit us or others. Self judgement and having rigid expectations creates a life of pressure and performance. Rather then being connected to self kindness. Some believe that kicking ourselves and forcing ourselves to change is necessary. In this episode you'll hear about a different approach from my wholeness coach Val Coltman. She shares some of her own story and how she lives a lifestyle of being connected to her own heart through gentleness. Val is a Senior Director and one of the founders of TwentyR. The purpose of this ministry is to provide people with experiential opportunities to encounter God in order to be whole.
