💚SELF-COMPASSION💜

When we face challenges or difficult times it helps to practice kindness, acceptance and understanding towards ourselves.

Let go of judgements and start to listen deeply to what the body and mind needs.

Repeat these self-compassion phrases to help you open your heart and support yourself more.

💚 May I be kind to myself
🩷 May I accept myself as I am
💜 May I be brave and face my fear
💙 May I give myself compassion I need

Repeat often and at any time of the day. You can place hands over the heart.

Be like a tree🌳

Let go of your old leaves (your resistance and hardness) to prepare for new growth, just like a tree.

How often do we say we want change, we want peace, or better life?
When we hold onto same thinking, patterns, reactions or attachments, nothing will change!

Let go of what is draining your peace.
Let go of the habits make you feel stuck.
Let go of any harmful cravings.
Let go of negative self-talk.

When we release the old, we create space for
the new, and the healing and growth begins.
Our clarity of mind returns and our true self awakens.

Be like Tree:
🌳 Stay grounded
🌲Bend before you break
🌴Enjoy your uniqueness
🌱Let go of old leaves and grow

You can learn more on how to let go in my online yoga classes or yoga on Russell island.
