The Buddha says, "If your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete." Sometimes we can find it easy to be kind

to others, but struggle to treat ourselves with the same care and kindness. Self-Compassion invites us to widen our circle of compassion and love to include ourselves at the very heart of it. By learning to attend to all of our human emotions, experiences, and our very selves with kindness, care, and compassion, our hearts can begin to deepen to life within and around us. Self-Compassion can offer us the inner resources to connect more authentically with ourselves and with others, support ourselves in challenging times, navigate difficult and powerful emotions with greater ease, connect more fully with spirituality, and become more open and receptive to life itself. Self-Compassion is available to each of us, at any time. No one is ever too late or too 'un-self-compassionate' to begin this practice. We are all included in this call to kindness. Even though self-compassion is actually quite simple, its impact can change your entire life. By first shifting the relationship we have with ourselves, we can shift how we relate to all of life.
