Cultivate selfcompassion from "summary" of Untamed by Glennon Doyle
To cultivate self-compassion is to treat ourselves with the same love and kindness that we would offer to a friend who is hurting. It is about acknowledging our own pain, struggles, and imperfections without judgment or criticism. Self-compassion involves showing ourselves the same understanding and empathy that we would readily extend to others in similar situations. It is about being gentle with ourselves, especially during difficult times, and recognizing that we deserve compassion just as much as anyone else. By cultivating self-compassion, we learn to be more forgiving and accepting of ourselves, even when we make mistakes or fall short of our own expectations. It allows us to embrace our vulnerabilities and recognize that they are a natural part of being human. Self-compassion helps us to let go of the need for perfection and to be more kind and patient with ourselves as we navigate the challenges of life. When we practice self-compassion, we are able to silence our inner critic and replace it with a voice of kindness and understanding. We learn to treat ourselves with the same care and consideration that we would extend to a loved one in need. This shift in perspective can be transformative, helping us to cultivate a deeper sense of self-acceptance and self-love. Self-compassion also enables us to set healthier boundaries and prioritize our own well-being. It empowers us to say no to things that do not serve us and to make choices that align with our values and needs. By practicing self-compassion, we become better equipped to navigate life's challenges with resilience and grace.- Cultivating self-compassion is a powerful act of self-care and self-empowerment. It allows us to cultivate a deeper sense of connection and compassion for ourselves, which in turn enables us to show up more fully and authentically in our relationships and in the world. By learning to treat ourselves with the same kindness and understanding that we offer to others, we can transform our relationship with ourselves and experience a greater sense of peace, fulfillment, and wholeness.
