Happy Fertility Friday!

And welcome to this year-long series on inviting more compassion into your life.  This is week Three.

Find out why I’m doing this compassion series in Week One (basically I realized I was being mean to myself).  

Each week I will go over a new quote as indicated in the book A Year of Living with More Compassion, and I will produce a vlog for you, so you can practice along with me.

This is the third week of the series.  You can find the rest of the series below:

• Week One
• Week Two

The quote this week is by an anonymous person:

“I never beat myself up gently.”

Here is the practice for this week:  1) Practice making a scowling, negative facial expression for 15-30 seconds.  2) Switch to a kind, compassionate facial expression for 15-30 seconds. 3) Note the difference.  4) Practice speaking with a negative tone (e.g. say something unkind to yourself.  5) Practice speaking with a kind, compassionate tone. 6) Note the difference.

Hoping you feel more peaceful and more self-compassionate after this week’s exercise.  I’ll see you next week!

Be well,

-M
