Self-compassion can feel surprisingly unnatural when you’ve spent years believing you had to earn it. That’s why practices like this matter.

So glad to see this post. Metta, or Lovingkindness practice can be so healing and help us see where we struggle. Years ago, after a year of practice, I realized the root of my own unhappiness, and made some big life decisions that led to much healing. I was able to see I am enough, just as I am, full stop. 💜🙏🏽

Oh gosh, thanks for commenting and sharing Lilliana. I’m glad you had that experience. Meditation has also been key for me in learning (and relearning) that message. It can be so transformative!! 💙
