Why are we so hard on ourselves? It's not a rhetorical question. This week, Janine and Shannon discuss self-compassion and treating ourselves as nicely as we treat our besties.

• How constantly reminding yourself of your mistakes makes it hard to do the thing you're trying to do
• A technique for letting go of past mistakes
• Acknowledging a past struggle before asking yourself to do the thing again
• Shannon's Boring Change technique that helps you understand the deeper need behind your behaviors (and can help you modify your behavior)
• Understanding when you're struggling and being kind to yourself
• Channeling your own BFF and thinking about what they'd say to you
• Ask yourself, "What would I say to a friend with this challenge?"
• Recognizing that you're not the only person struggling with something
• Nobody is flawless!
• Setting realistic expectations so you don't beat yourself up
• How it's helpful to put a positive spin on things
• An important reminder: How you choose to perceive things makes a big difference in how you experience them because it has a bearing on what you notice
• The value of a gratitude journal to help you look for the good things in your life
• A recipe for being your own BFF: Acknowledge the issues, looking for the good, and let the feelings that the good inspire in you help you move forward
