7. Three Ways I've Been More Kind To Myself Lately

7. Three Ways I've Been More Kind To Myself Lately

In this episode I talk about a few ways I've been much more kind to myself lately. It's been almost four months since I said goodbye to Gary, and I wouldn't have gotten through this time with any grace at all unless I amped up my self-compassion practice.

And I've realized there are parts of myself that I've never really shown compassion to before. I guess I thought that certain parts of me or certain feelings that I experience just needed some *tough love* or re-direction or avoidance altogether. But it turns out they've REALLY been needing some loving attention and validation. And they're just as deserving of love as the parts of me that are easier for me to acknowledge.

So that's what I've been doing - practicing loving all parts of myself, validating any and all feelings that arise, and asking "what's good for me?" and being honest with myself about the answer to that question.

The more I practice self-compassion, the more resilient I feel. Doesn't mean it's easy or fun all the time, but it's definitely a much more loving way to relate to myself. And it obviously feels way better than harshly judging myself, so... I'm gonna try to keep this self-compassion thing up for the rest of my life. A long-term goal, if you will.
