Summary

Before we can love others, we must love ourselves first. Do you truly love yourself? Love and self-compassion work together. Self-compassion involves treating yourself with the same kindness, concern and support you’d show to a good friend. When faced with difficult life struggles, or confronting personal mistakes, failures, and inadequacies, self-compassion responds with kindness rather than harsh self-judgment, recognizing that imperfection is part of the shared human experience. Listen in to find out the steps to take to increase your self-compassion so you can live your best life.
