5 ways to get to know yourself

Being seen + known is something we all deeply crave + need. It is fundamental to being loved + accepted for who we truly are.

In an ideal world, we all would have grown up feeling seen, known + unconditionally loved by the people closest to us. But, unfortunately, that isn’t the case and many of us did not learn how to lovingly know ourselves, or have even became chronically numb + dissociated as a result of adverse experiences.

In any case, going beneath the surface and getting to know your truest thoughts, feelings + needs is the first and most important step in creating a meaningful + supportive relationship with yourself.

It is an ongoing process, no matter how ‘healed’ you are. Every day there is something new to know about ourselves and what is going on in us right now… something to understand more deeply, something to accept + integrate, something to love more fully.

If you’re ready to dive deeper into the process of self-discovery, I invite you to check out my self-guided coaching workbook! It has 4 weeks of journal prompts, guided meditations, and somatic exercises that will help you understand the hidden motivations behind your people pleasing + perfectionist habits and re-wire your brain so you can live more congruently with your needs + values. You deserve to be seen + known, at that starts with YOU!
