Mindful Self-Compassion

Mindful self-compassion
is the foundation of emotional healing.

Mindful self-compassion
 is being aware in the present moment.

Mindful self-compassion
is when we're struggling with feelings
of inadequacy, despair, confusion,
and other forms of stress.

And responding with kindness and understanding
or self-compassion.

Mindful self-compassion
also means holding difficult emotions
—fear, anger, sadness, shame and self-doubt--
and ourselves,
in loving awareness.

This will lead to greater ease and
greater well-being and
grace in our daily lives.

Mindful self-compassion
can be learned by anyone.

Mindful self-compassion
is the practice of repeatedly
evoking good will toward ourselves
especially when we’re suffering--
cultivating the same desire that all living beings
  may live happily
and free from suffering.
