What Is It?
#SelfCompassion encompasses:

- Common Humanity (we’re all going through the same experiences)
- Mindfulness (observe the present moment and don’t be a slave to your feelings)
How Do You Practice It?
Simple….Acs of self-compassion begin with positive statements in the 2nd person as if you were talking to a good friend.
(Say your name) you’re making progress. VS. You missed your goal.
(Say your name) keep trying, you’re going to get it done VS. You’re always falling short.
You get it. We all engage in negative self-criticism vs. Self-Kindness.

As you approach challenges in your day, try it out and notice the positive difference it makes.
