"Being Kind to Yourself in Times of Stress"
This is a short blog from the World Health Organization. I am providing this link to you because, in my experience as a coach, one thing I repeatedly hear about are the negative messages we send ourselves over and over. I address this topic in many coaching sessions--especially when I use the Acceptance and Commitment Coaching model. Listen to this great blog and use it however you want. It's good anytime you start to beat yourself up--at work or away from work.
