It sounds so easy, but when you stop and think about how often you actually think and act with kindness and compassion, not only for others, but for yourself as well, you may notice that it is not as common as you thought.

We live in a world where self-deprecation is expected when we receive a compliment, where self-criticism is taught at a young age, and where we are taught to put others before ourselves, even on an emotional level.

When we continue to live this way, we lose the ability to move through difficult situations with ease, and we revert to self-destructive behaviors of criticism and anger. But, with Mindful Self Compassion, we quiet the inner critic, and face adversity with love, patience, kindness, and most importantly, compassion for how we are feeling in that moment.

Finally, Mindful Self Compassion brings a deep understanding of who we truly are, so we are then able to attend to ourselves with kindness and compassion in the exact ways that we need. It is a wisdom practice that allows you to strengthen your emotional intelligence of yourself and others.

I want to help you bring Mindful Self Compassion to your life so that you may live every day in love, kindness, and ease. Learn more about me, Victoria, here.
