Hello Laycee – I had missed your comment on this earlier. It is cathartic to look within at yourself sometimes isn’t it? To realize how far you’ve come on your journey? I didn’t know biting nails could be such a big issue, but it sounds like it was a life-changing one for you!!

You were also brave to extend the topic to include what you’re still working on – but I hope it doesn’t drag you down to list what still needs work? Life is about growing and evolving, but if you take on anorexia and anxiety and depression as a whole, those are huge things to take on!

I have two tips that might help:

  • Identify smaller things that you’d like to change that would lead to the bigger things you’d want to address. The advantage with trying to make smaller changes is that you’ll start changing immediately, and feel a sense of accomplishment. But the bigger idea here is that it also helps with generating energy and momentum toward your bigger goal.
  • My second tip to create change is to focus on the positive, rather than fighting the negative. For example, if you want to get rid of a habit, it might be easier to replace it with another one that you can be excited about, rather than try to completely deny yourself.

    Also, I wrote a blog post on this topic a little while ago, see if it resonates with you: http://www.nestintheforest.com/samskara/

    I hope this helps… Good Luck!
