LX2 Codependency Coaching

Fail forward

Today we are talking about the challenges of messing it up as we move forward. As we start to use new tools and skills we won't always use them right the first time. We are supposed to fail and mess things up and we get better at it with practice. #failforward @keepgoing #healingjourney #therapyworks #mentalhealth

Raising the bar as you increase your worth

Using new skills can be hard. As we increase our self-awareness of boundaries and expectations, we will raise the bar for our relationships. We teach people how to treat us. We can use skills and not do it perfectly and that is ok. We only get better at doing things with practice, grace and compassion. #doitanyway #manageyourpeace #liveyourworth #raisethebar 

Entitlement, worthy and deserving related to Codependency

Today we are talking about how being Codependent can contribute to feeling entitlement and resentment. When we love ourselves we recognize we are worthy and deserving of love simply by being. When we are doing so much for other people we start to create a sense of entitlement. We create transactional relationships that build pressure and unrealistic expectations. #entitlement #worhtyoflove #deserving #boundaries #peoplepleasing

Acceptance, growth and healing

We can't change or grow until we get to a level of acceptance of the situation. We have to tell ourselves the truth with kindness and love. We have to see all of our parts at the same time. It can be really hard and it is worth it. #changeishard #selfacceptance #lovingbetter #therapyworks #movingforward

Conflict and Codependency

Today we are talking about Conflict Style, expectations and emotions. When we are Codependent we can be conflict avoidant. We hold back from expressing our true emotions and expectations because we are trying to avoid discomfort. #conflictskills #emotionalawareness #askingforyourneeds #workingthroughit

Success is relative to the struggle.

How we define success is relative to the struggle we are going through. How and who sets the benchmark informs the goals we have. Those goals we reach or don't reach can create pathways in our brain for what success is. When we shift the perspective from large goals to smaller attainable goals will help your brain receive success. #goalsetting #loweryourexpectations #changeyourbrain #thestruggleisreal

Living in Deprivation

Codependency can cause us deprive ourselves of our needs or create the limiting belief that we aren't deserving of getting our needs met. We are so busy taking care of other people we deprive ourselves of what we want and need for our own peace and wellbeing. #takingcareofyourneeds #livingindeprivation #createyourpeace #lx2codependencycoaching #limitingbeliefs

Emotional availability and vulnerability

Today we are talking about allowing yourself to be emotionally available and vulnerable once you start to love yourself better. Healing past your Codependency and trusting the people around you with your feeling. Breaking down your walls and creating boundaries. 

Getting out of the Box

The idea of the box is cutting off parts of ourselves to feel safe in certain relationships or environments to keep ourselves safe. We hold back our authentic big self with all of our parts to stay in relationship. #authenticity #buildingconfidence #gettinginthebox #lettinggoofrelationships #releasingoldversions

Being liked and people pleasing

Today we are talking about this idea of being liked and being a people pleaser. The challenge is liking yourself and pleasing you. Are you being kind and compassionate to yourself. #boundaries #lovingyoubetter #peoplepleasing #codependency #pickme #likeyoufirst
