Self compassion
I'm trying to build self compassion into my daily life, just read this on a book...
This is the essence of self compassion: treating yourself with the same warmth and understanding you'd expect from a dear friend. It's about embracing yourself in moments of failure or inadequacy rather than wielding harsh self judgement. It's a concept that can feel elusive, yet it's crucial for mental health, creating a foundation of resilience and peace.

It resonated with me, I've got an over analytical logical mind, self judgement, never 😉

I resonate with this strongly. Self-care and self-compassion are two components that I tend to struggle with. Nowadays, I try to be nicer to myself and to think “If a friend came to you about the same problem you have, what would you tell them?”. I have a lot of self-resentment and I would argue that I’ve really worked on the self-hatred too. It’s still somewhat there, but not enough to drag me down as much as it did. I’m giving myself a voice that’s less harsh and more gentle. I still struggle with self-compassion, but at least I can say that I’m working on it everyday. Thanks for this post, I appreciate it.

I'm struggling a little with moving forwards for health related reasons. The quote was taken from this book on DBT, might be worth a look.

How dare you ? Suggesting inner peace is snail like to a dedicated lifelong athlete ð¤ªð¤ªð¤ª
@RunningMachine

@Harmony272
Apologies, it was meant as humour, I can be a little dry..
I was reminding myself of this today, I forget that I have a lot on my plate and I often time compile and compile and compile. I do have to have more compassion for myself because it’s only one me. I feel so much pressure to perform by society and it’s really hard. I think I’m going back on my self love journey where I just choose me over and over and over again even if it’s to the detriment of relationships. I notice that more people need me because they aren’t working on themselves when I’m trying to keep the small bit of myself that I have inside of me. The way I saved my one life before was by choosing me, which mean I have to have self compassion. It’s hard to cancel on my best friend’s birthday trip but I really don’t want anymore alcohol for the rest of the year, if this means we aren’t friends then maybe the friendship was never real.
@sonnieeee
Why cancel, I only have zero alcohol options due to meds.
