This self-talk can limit our ability to believe in ourselves and our abilities, and can diminish our confidence. In this month’s master class, Kara Simon, Owner and Operator of Loving Heart Holistic Wellness will be joining us to discuss ways to overcome negative self-talk. Together, we’ll discuss practices like the S.T.O.P. method, the use of practical affirmations, mindfulness, and more.
