#94- how to stop negative coping strategies & self-sabotage (emotional eating, all-or-nothing mentality, etc. )

“do not blame your past self for your negative coping strategies, but understand that you are not a victim. it is your responsibility to dig yourself out.” today we are going to get vulnerable and talk about negative coping strategies. we all have at least a few, and nobody wants to share theirs, so let me share my negative coping strategies: overworking myself, isolating myself, procrastination, emotional eating, and a few more.  I am vulnerable in hopes of making someone feel less alone. anyways, those negative coping strategies were built because past-me had no other resources and that is what she turned to. however, it is my responsibility to make sure that I have positive coping strategies and instead of turning away from the emotions, embrace them and allow myself to feel. as someone who used to eat away her feelings (or not eat at all), as someone who would push her friends and family away constantly, I know what it is like to be stuck in this cycle of negative coping strategies and self-sabotage. (btw, self sabotage and negative coping strategies go hand in hand as both turn you away from your ultimate goal of bettering yourself).  I talk about a few key steps to understanding your negative coping strategies(that will involve a bit of journaling), how to create healthy coping strategies, and ways that you can overcome the all or nothing mentality. I hope you love this episode. like all of my episodes in 2024, it is a bit more vulnerable, but hopefully it helps you understand why you struggle with that habit that you always battle with, and ways that you can overcome it. 🤍 MENTIONS:  * Matinee Candle Company and use code lovely10 for 10% off your order: https://matineecandleco.com/ * HealED Digital Eating Disorder Recovery Journals click here and use code LOVELYWITHLANAPOD for 20% off: https://scribbleandcodesign.etsy.com 🤍 FIND ME EVERYWHERE: find all my socials and everything else here: https://linktr.ee/lovelywithlana    🤍 KEY WORDS: Confidence, wellness, pilates, fashion, coquette, pink pilates, pink pilates princess, girly fashion, lifestyle, soft-girl, aesthetic, weightlifting, gym-life, “that” girl podcast, girly podcast, pink, healthy, healthy food, lifestyle, luxury, workout, working out, consistency, discipline, self-care, self care, self love, business, entrepreneurship, friends, friendship, diet, weight-loss, healthy eating, morning routine, productive morning routine, 5 am club, millionaire mindset, school year, 4.0 student, intuitive eating, anti-diet culture, organization, productivity, skincare, haircare, romanticize your life. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lovelywithlanapod/support
