Mindful Self-Compassion: How to Be Kind to Yourself

Practice Mindful Self-Compassion: Be Kind to Yourself

 

Mindful self-compassion is a way of treating yourself with kindness and understanding, just as you would treat a good friend.

It is based on the idea that we all experience difficult emotions and experiences, and that we can learn to be more accepting and compassionate towards ourselves when we do.

There are three components of mindful self-compassion:

  • Self-kindness: This is the practice of being kind and understanding towards yourself, even when you make mistakes or experience difficult emotions.

 

  • Common humanity: This is the recognition that everyone experiences difficult emotions and experiences, and that you are not alone.

 

  • Mindfulness: This is the practice of paying attention to your thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations with kindness and curiosity.

 

Mindful self-compassion can be practiced in many different ways. Here are a few examples:

  • When you are feeling down, take a few minutes to focus on your breath and remind yourself that everyone experiences difficult emotions.

 

  • When you make a mistake, try to be kind to yourself and learn from the experience.

 

  • When you are feeling stressed or anxious, take a few minutes to do something that you enjoy, such as listening to music or taking a walk.

 

  • When you are feeling self-critical, try to remember that you are not perfect and that everyone makes mistakes.

 

Mindful self-compassion is a powerful practice that can help you to be more accepting and compassionate towards yourself.

If you are struggling with self-criticism or self-judgment, mindful self-compassion can be a helpful tool for you.

Keep this in mind when  practicing mindful self-compassion:

  • Be patient with yourself. It takes time and practice to learn to be kind to yourself.

 

  • Don’t judge yourself for not being perfect. Everyone makes mistakes.

 

  • Find a way to connect with your inner wisdom and compassion. This could be through meditation, yoga, or simply spending time in nature.

 

  • Remember that you are not alone. Everyone experiences difficult emotions and experiences.

 

  • God loves you!  Even with all your imperfections, God still loves you more than you can ever believe.

 

Mindful self-compassion is a journey, not a destination. There will be times when you are more compassionate towards yourself than others.

But with practice, you will learn to be more accepting and kind to yourself, even in the face of difficult emotions and experiences.

Finding Inspiration to Live Today!

 

Never make the mistake of turning a temporary situation into a permanent condition. 

Tough time never last, you know, but tough people, tough faith and motivation to see another beautiful day do! If you make a mistake, don’t turn it into a monument. 

Learn the lessons, forget the details. Give yourself a second chance. You are growing.

 Learning is part of living. Stop visiting the past, there are better places in the future.

Focus on what’s coming, not on good old days!

 Stop the drama, not everything or every person that is worth paying attention to. Sometimes, the best you can do is to “look, and pass!” 

People who love you will support you no matter what. Allow wrong people to ‘exit’ your life. Create a space for right people and better opportunities. 

Your best is yet to come, make today a great day! Give yourself a gift of hug!
