— Treating yourself with kindness can be life-changing—and journaling can help you get there. Learn to let go of negativity and improve your self-image. Build the skills you need for managing self-criticism and practicing self-compassion so you can increase happiness and let go of anxiety.
Clarity helps us find focus and direction so we can take steps toward what we want for our lives. Alison’s work is designed to empower you to get clarity on where you are and where you'd like to be. Growing in self-compassion starts with seeing things as they are. Before making the changes important for healing, it's essential we get real about what's holding us back and no longer working. When you unload the weight you've been carrying, you make room for compassion. It's freeing to create a future beyond the places we've been limiting ourselves. What we can imagine—what could be—is where new possibilities open and we come alive. Our dreams, visions, goals, and commitments give us direction and purpose. They inspire us into action and guide us back on our path when we inevitably get off track along the way. — Alison
