The Magic of Self-Compassion
Research on self-compassion has shown that treating yourself with kindness leads to increased happiness, life satisfaction, motivation, physical health, better relationships and reduced anxiety and depression.
When we can be aware of our struggles and respond to ourselves with compassion and kindness, things can change for the better.
So how do we practice self-compassion?
Treat yourself with kindness and embrace your inner weird.
When you’re feeling down about yourself or something you’ve done, think about how you would treat someone you deeply cared about.
➡️ What words would you say?
➡️ What support would you offer?
When we treat ourselves like someone we truly love and respect despite our so-called flaws, we can experience greater well-being and resilience. And when we FEEL good, we can BE good.
