The psychology of Self Compassion

Tired of being your own worst critic?🥺

We often speak to ourselves in the way that we would never speak to our best friend. That voice in your hand that says, " you should have done better" feels familiar but it's not helpful. 

Here's a tip instead: 🙌 self criticism activates the threat system in our brain. (hello stress and anxiety!). self compassion activates the caregiving system. ( hello calm and safety!)

🤔Your thought provoking question: is your best friend made the mistake what would you say to them? 

Say those kind words to yourself today! you deserve those kind words too.💖
