"You suck. You can't do anything right. Work harder! Don't be so freakin lazy. Push harder. You aren't trying hard enough you lardbutt!"

Do more. Be better you jerk!

I hate you.

You are so fat and disgusting.

Why can't you do it? What is wrong with you?

You're pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would you ever talk to your kid like this? What about your dog?

Would you talk to your Mom like this?
What about your best friend?

Would you yell at your partner this way?
What about your boss?

Would you talk to a tree this way? Or a flower? Or a spiritual leader? Your food or clothes?

Or any human, animal or living thing?

SO -
Why would you treat yourself this way?

Why would you talk to yourself this way?

Why would you think these things about yourself?

When you are in yoga, why would you treat your body this way?

What is your "self talk" during yoga class?

Are you feeding yourself with thoughts and energy like this?

Why?

During a challenging pose, when you are in pain, when you are tight, when you feel aggressive and push your body...

Take a breath and...

TREAT YOURSELF THE WAY YOU WOULD TREAT OTHERS.

Peace
Andrea
