When you are used to looking outside yourself for reassurance, another person’s response can carry more weight than you intended. A delayed reply, an overlooked contribution, or a difficult conversation may leave you questioning your worth.
Seen From Within™ offers a gentle space to recognize your experience, understand your needs, and connect with others without losing touch with yourself.
Created by Dr. Maxine Goring-Rodriguez, Ph.D. in Psychology, this SoulCentements™ companion draws on the Soul-Centered Mental Wellness Model, with spirituality at the center and practices from Healthy Sense of Self, Psychological Flexibility, Perspective, and Daily Maintenance.
