Hello Shiny Minds, I kept hearing the same joke for years: "If you could just get over your shyness, Shiny!" :) Obviously I was never perceived as a "shy" person by others around me, who knew me. On the contrary, my confidence and assertiveness was even "too much" for some people that I interacted  with. But... I had something similarly challenging inside. I did not feel strong enough to speak my truth. So I either held back or said something I didn't really feel like. I was too afraid of being judged, being shamed and being wrong. Until I realized that I was the one judging myself... limiting myself... not allowing myself to express freely, truthfully, vulnerably... Because of my childhood conditioning... Let's call it "recovering people pleaser". Can you relate? If you can, you're also gonna enjoy today's topic. Key Strategies to Overcome Shyness Shift Your Focus

Hello Dear Shiny Minds, In a world full of opinions and noise, it's easy to forget the most important relationship you have: the one with yourself. But what if you could cultivate your own built-in best friend – a constant source of love, support, and encouragement? That's the power of self-love! Ready to unlock your inner BFF? Here are my 5 powerful tips: Silence the Inner Critic: We all have that voice pointing out flaws. But would you constantly criticize your best friend? No way! Treat yourself with kindness. Shut down negativity and cultivate a voice of encouragement. Ditch the Pity Party: Sometimes self-compassion is needed, but wallowing won't solve problems. Reframe challenges with empowering questions. Ask "What can I learn from this?" or "What steps can I take to move forward?" Ask Powerful Questions: Ditch the yes-or-no and delve deeper. Ask open-ended, thought-provoking questions that spark new perspectives. Find your own solutions and unlock your inner strength. Spend Time with Yourself: Treat yourself like your best friend! Take yourself on solo adventures – a walk in nature, a spa day, or even a romantic dinner for one. Reconnect with yourself and discover what brings you joy. Maximize Self-Love: Self-love isn't selfish; it's essential. Nourish your body with good food, express your creativity, and connect with loved ones. Do things that make you feel good and radiate from the inside out.  Remember, you are worthy of unwavering love and support. Start your journey of self-discovery and self-love today!
