Day 12/90-Day Sprint. Practicing Self-Compassion💖"
💜 Welcome to Day 12 of our 90-Day Sprint. Today, we're focusing on a cornerstone of personal growth: Practicing Self-Compassion💖" Treat yourself with kindness. 💖 Acknowledge that everyone makes mistakes. Don’t look at them as mistakes because they're real opportunities to learn and grow. 📚 "Life is filled with challenges, and it's easy to be our own harshest critics. But what if we shifted that narrative? Self-compassion involves treating ourselves with the same kindness and understanding that we would offer a dear friend. It's about recognizing that everyone makes mistakes and that these moments are opportunities to learn and grow. 📚 "1 self-criticism can begin to unravel the work you have done previously and adjust your compass and keep practicing self-compassion. "Research indicates that when you use self-compassion regularly you experience greater happiness, a higher life satisfaction, and feel more motivated. You will also have a tendency to have better relationships and better mental and physical health, less anxiety and depression. By embracing self-compassion, we build resilience and foster a healthier mindset." "Here are some practical ways to cultivate self-compassion: *Mindfulness Meditation: Spend a few minutes each day observing your thoughts and feelings without judgment. This practice helps in acknowledging emotions and reduces self-criticism. *Positive Self-Talk: Replace negative thoughts with affirmations. For instance, change 'I failed' to 'I'm learning and growing' *Physical Self-Care: Engage in activities that nurture your body, like taking a warm bath, going for a walk, or enjoying a healthy me. *Write a Self-Compassion Letter: Reflect on a situation that caused you distress and write a letter to yourself offering understanding and comfort, just as you would to a friend. *Acknowledge Shared Humanity: Remember that everyone faces difficulties; you're not alone in your struggle. This community especially is here to help you to move into a better space mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Write positive affirmations on a mirror and read them daily.
