Remember to Be Kind to Yourself

One of the most important relationships in our life is the relationship we hold with ourselves. If we step back and pay attention to the voice in our head, we are often far more critical, mean-spirited, and harsh to ourselves than we would ever be to another. If you struggle with being kind and loving to others, recognize that this is most likely due to the fact that you struggle to be kind and loving to yourself. If you don’t allow love to come in, you won’t be able to let love come out. 

THIS WEEK: Forgive yourself. Start new. Whatever it is, whatever you’ve done, forgive yourself. Right now. Renew your marriage vows to yourself and begin again.

 

All the best,

Steve Lawson - Monk Manual Founder
