Gaslighting has been a very popular word and the English language. So much so that Merriam-Webster announced that it was the word of the year for 2022. It is a psychological manipulation of a person over an extended period of time that causes the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts a perception of reality that leads to decrease confidence and self-esteem. It is very easy to identity when does this to us. But can we do it to ourselves? Yes we can. Self-awareness is key to identifying the roots of self-gaslighting. If we are denying our own experiences, believing lies about ourselves, lacking healthy boundaries and always blaming ourselves, we could be self-gaslighting. In this episode you will learn how to get out of this unhealthy cycle and let God into those roots that have been planted.

“Christ in you, the hope of glory”. ~ Colossians 1:27

 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” ~Matt 11:28-30
