In a competitive and overwhelming world like ours, many of us fall victim to judging, criticizing or comparing ourselves. We move by rote rather than our own internal awareness, we are battering rather than self-accepting, harsh rather than forgiving.
Mindful Self-Compassion teaches you to be more aware and open to the present moment, giving yourself what you truly need. It’s like being given a big STOP button to old habits that hurt you, while learning to embrace a kinder way that genuinely supports you, and that lives in truth. Self-compassion allows you to be fully human.
It provides you with emotional strength and resilience. And it can be learned by anyone, even those who didn’t receive enough affection in childhood or who feel uncomfortable when they are good to themselves.
