Listen "From Abandonment and Alcohol to Choosing to Love Yourself with Amie Wade"

Episode Synopsis

Amie’s childhood stories consist of abandonment and abuse, which was a contributing factor of having suicidal thoughts almost daily. This week on My Dead Dragon, Amie joins Katherine to talk about her journey from choosing to use alcohol as a means of coping with her unhealthy emotions, to learning to love herself and share her gifts with the world. 
 
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Through her behaviours, Amie knew that she didn’t love herself, and if she didn’t love herself how could she love her son. She was wanting love from all the people who let her down and didn’t keep her safe. Amie learned that she had to love herself and use her voice. 
When we look into our eyes we are talking to our spirit. Amie used a little mirror where she could only see her eyes and learned to say that she loved herself. The mirrors Amie used got bigger over the months until she could look at all of herself and love it. 
Affirmations reprogram our subconscious minds over time. When we start affirming ourselves in a safe way it makes it easier to begin the process. If Amie had used the big mirror straight away, she would have picked herself apart. 
Mindset is so important and affects our emotions. You need to change the way you talk to yourself with affirmations. Develop your own affirming mantra that you can tell yourself throughout the day and that can start to reprogram your brain.
