Focus on Your Self-Compassion

Day 5/30

How did you get on with yesterday’s question? Simple, but deep.

Today’s question builds on yesterday’s.

My invitation to you is to take this question, let it become comfortable in your mind, heart and soul, and observe what answers you receive in reply.

Then at some point in the day, give yourself some quiet time, uninterruptible privacy, […]

So yesterday’s post was about Permission.  Today’s is a somewhat fictionalised real-life example of how encouraging one of my clients during a transformational, soul-shifting coaching session to give herself permission has helped her develop S-C habits. Enjoy.

Let’s Look at Impostorism

Look at us all.   We are all, on the surface at least and to all intents and purposes, confident, strong, wise, resilient women.  Each and every one of us has a lifetime of personal, educational and professional experiences, obstacles overcome, achievements and happenings.

Aaah, but on the inside?   When we put ourselves to the risk wire, […]

Release the Ughies

Did you ever get that ‘work harder-harder-harder; you can do better than this’ voice in your head?

Being You – Enjoying Imperfect

Being You – Enjoying Imperfect

I sat in my car in the car park, set my phone timer for 12 mins, closed my eyes, and did a mindful Body Scan, followed by 10 mins of quiet breathing and meditation. All around me cars were parking, people getting out, doors banging. I drifted away to a quiet, […]

Your Choice – Your Self-Compassion

Today is about Choice.  I love that word.  Choice.  How it feels in my mouth when I say it.  The variety of sounds within that one word when I speak it.  And the meanings of it.  The many differing meanings of it. The importance of conscious choice in our lives.

For our purposes, I’m offering the […]
