How many times a day do you criticize or judge yourself? Your relationship with yourself is the most important relationships that you will ever have with anyone. It’s essential to develop a healthy relationship of respect toward yourself, and it begins by cultivating mindfulness of thoughts. You can learn to not be affected by your thoughts and relate to them in a way that ends their control of you and your behavior.

Practicing awareness of thoughts on a daily basis with a formal mindfulness exercise can cultivate thoughts that are more productive or positive and energizes you toward healthy actions. You are moving from the old model of listening and reacting to negative voices to the new model of watching thoughts pass through your mind and talking to yourself like you would to your best friend.
