Now there is a concept… Self-compassion as a self-awareness.
This precious piece is in Sanskrit only but… language is just a heap of words, so I invite you to listen from the heart…
How easily are you able to have compassion for yourself?
In my last post I was discussing disappointments. Getting past disappointments may require some self-compassion.
How do you show yourself a little compassion?
It feels awkward maybe to give yourself compassion, maybe if we were to practice it on a regular basis we’d get more comfortable with embracing the concept.

Your post is a valid reminder of that skill we so easily give to others, but so rarely to ourselves.. Lovely post, my Bliss! 😎
Hello & Happy Sunday my dear Sis Bliss. I have been pondering why this is. If we recognize not only the need for self-compassion, but also the good why is it so difficult to be kind to our selves? Has me scratching my head.
Of course there are no doubt a different answer for every person.
Thanks so much Jude for popping on by. I am always so happy to see and chat with you ~
As I am with you, my dear sister. 😎
Love to you tonight~ 🙂
Thanks sweetie, and right back to you. If you glimpse a Persied meteor tonight, think of me — I’ll be watching too.
Hugs — Judith
Was there and had such clear skies. Thought of you and how big yet how small our universe is.
We had cloudy skies, but I saw a couple of streaks. I’m going to try again tonight.
Me too but will also have clouds tonight.
Oh, well. It is still nice to know we are both looking at the same sky on the same night. 😎
That it is. 🙂

Beautiful… Very wise advice.
Well hello GodGirl, Thank you ever so much for your very kind comment. I am happy you saw some value in the post, Hope you will come back often and visit and spread your shining light ~ BB
My dear friend – what a wonderful post! Truly inspiring and uplifting. Thank you!!!
Sweet lady friend I adore you for finding something to take away from this post,
I THANK YOU!!!
Where do you find the time to get these touching inspiring together? Thank you.
That is the nicest thing to say about my blog Tess, thank you so much. Truth be told? I only sleep about 2 hours a night, 4 if I am really lucky. So I write a lot. 😉
The second greatest commandment according g to Christ is “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Could it be we have difficulty loving others because we have never learned to love ourselves?
hello PJ, I think you might have a valid point. If we could love ourselves than I think the natural extension would be easily loving our neighbors. All of them. If we did not hold judgement for ourselves maybe we’d not judge others.
Thank you so much for visiting and chatting. I feel blessed by your comments every time. ~
I found you on another blog, posting a comment. This is a wonderful, uplifting post!
I show myself compassion when I am stressed by taking myself to one side, “off the grid,” and breathing deeply, mindfully. I let myself simply BE for a moment, and that fills me with joy. Then my approach to the situation at hand is always more loving, which is also self-care. Thanks for this, Amy
What a beautiful share you gifted my post and myself with.
Thank you and so lovely to meet you Amy. (my oldest daughter’s name too)
You knowing yourself, and how to assimilate personal conflict while at the same time being loving to your self is a gift you give yourself as well those who know you.
