My brother Tate gives himself pep talks. It is the GREATEST thing I have ever heard. The other day he was walking on the treadmill and I heard him say, “This is hard. Almost done. Ten more seconds. Five more seconds. Ok. Good job. I’m done.”
He was a sweaty mess and he completed his task and it was hard but he still did it. I was so proud of him.
I have started giving myself pep talks. “Everything is fine. You can do this. You got this. No. Problem.”
It actually makes things easier.
Self soothing.
Highly recommend.
