Turn that nasty self-talk around!

Mindfulness for PMDD with Diane

Message me with questions or comments!

Hey friend,
If you've been feeling consumed by your PMDD, I'm here to tell you that
YOU ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN YOUR SYMPTOMS, thoughts and feelings!
I've been there, where PMDD felt like my whole identity. But I want to encourage you to consider that you are more significant than just your PMDD experience.
While it can be easy to feel engulfed by your symptoms, PMDD DOES NOT DEFINE YOU.
Fusing our identity to our PMDD experience might sound like this:
'I'm depressed. I'm anxious. I'm a terrible parent. I'm a terrible partner. I'm incompetent. I have PMDD.'
In this episode, you'll hear how we are limiting ourselves with this negative self-talk and by identifying with our PMDD.
And I'll share with you some exercises to mindfully turn that around!
I also reflect on the practical side of mindfulness and its profound impact on living with PMDD. You might be relieved to hear that mindfulness can be as functional as learning to work within our capacity and our priorities, and making meaningful changes to our daily routines as a result.
Remember, Mindfulness for PMDD isn't an instant fix; it's a practice, and a step-by-step journey to retrain your mind. Stick with it and you just might discover a renewed perspective on your true self. I believe in you!
