Welcome to Living Table! 🌊 I'm so glad you are here! 🫶   Hi friend, Do you struggle with negative self talk? Is there a bully in your head constantly putting you down?  Our brains are like a program that can get stuck in a loop but the good news is we can reprogram our brains by taking action with positive self talk to silence the inner critic. Today’s episode is a conversation I had with my big brother recently where we dive into some of our wellness tools, what does and doesn’t work for us when it comes to our mental health and wellness, and how we respond to negative self-talk.   Listen in. Your presence matters here. <3 With you, Amy 📣 BIG shout out and THANK YOU to jayquesobe for the use of his songs OPST and Loosen Up in today's episode. So much love bro! 😎🫶 https://open.spotify.com/artist/6SqXEYKeMgddEPfBBm0lmV?si=JcKBAWi-RNeXA50Nb5cCXg 👉 Next Steps: > Need support for your mental health & wellness?
