Treat Yourself Like A Friend Already!

Treat Yourself Like A Friend Already!

If you're constantly scraping the bottom of your energy barrel you normalize depletion and exhaustion to the ones around. We all know what happens when you try to give more than you ACTUALLY have to give: you quickly burn out, you grow resentful and your sparkle fades.

ON THE FLIP SIDE

When you choose to invest in your personal creativity, in the quality of your sleep, when you choose to calm the mind or set healthy boundaries, you give permission for the village around you to do the same.  You actively create a culture of compassion and self compassion that grows, spreads and eventually shifts the world.


So how does one let in love and goodness? We start by treating ourselves like we would treat our loved ones. If they were tired you’d tell them to rest, if they were down on themselves you’d sing their praises.  HELP YOURSELF  IN THIS WAY TOO! You are a worthy, breathing human being with a combination of amazing talents and amazing skills that absolutely no else has.  You deserve the same compassion you give others.


If you don’t believe you deserve compassion then it’s one of those things I encourage you to “fake it till you make it”, tell yourself you're enough and that you deserve joy and soon enough, you might find you believe it:)
