...is to be kinder to myself. I am my own worst critic and lack in the department of self-compassion so I am working on that and learning to love myself unconditionally, flaws and all.

 

By the way I looove hearts and photographing them. :)

 

Thank you for your visit! I hope you had a great day. xo

Healing the shame of childhood abuse using the compassion cure

“Shame is the lie someone told you about yourself.” Anais Nin (attributed)Tweet This

Several months ago I wrote a blog on how self-compassion can heal the shame ofchildhood wounds and I received many queries about shame and sel...

“God calls all of you to take the path of the inner truth- and that means taking responsibility for everything that’s in you: for what pleases you and for what you’re ashamed of, for the rich person inside you and for the poor one. Francis of Assisi called this, “loving the leper within us.” If you learn to love the poor one within you, you’ll discover that you have room to have compassion “outside” too, that there’s room in you for others, for those who are different from you, for the least among your brothers and sisters.”

– Richard Rohr, “Simplicity”

"While I was in sin, it seemed very bitter to me to see lepers. The Lord led me among them and I had mercy upon them (literally, "I did mercy") And when I left them, that which seemed bitter in me was changed into sweetness of soul and body."

-St. Francis quoted by Fr. Rusty Shaughnessy, OFM

"Last night, as I was sleeping,

I dreamt blessed vision!

that I had a beehive

here in my heart;

and the golden bees

were making

from all my old sorrows

white wax and sweet honey."

-Antonio Machado

May 25, 2021: I’m back. Kinda. I know I’ve been #absent from here over the last week. I honestly don’t no where the #time has gone.

 

I #sunk down again. I skipped out on my #counselling last week as I hadn’t finished a #letter I was going to finish writing, to a teacher I had in elementary school who essentially #bullied me a lot. But today I didn’t miss it - well, I almost did but not purposely. I thought we were booked for tomorrow at 1. And by fluke I checked my email and saw an invitation to join a live chat that gets sent out by my #counsellor a few hours before our sessions. I quickly checked our other emails and saw that indeed the session was now. So I clicked the link and had our session. And it was good. It’s our last session, as she has a break coming up. We went over options for continuing counselling through other organizations at the end. But she feels I have enough tools in my toolbox to work with over the summer. Something I committed to do. Something I started tonight.

 

I opened an audio book I started listening to back in February. It’s a book by Kristen Neff called “Self Compassion Step by Step.” My @kwantlenu counsellor had recommended her to me early on in our sessions. Neff specializes in #positive #psychology and how each one of us can develop a deeper sense of #selfcompassion.

 

At its heart are Buddhist ideals. The middle way. To be #mindful. To be #kind to yourself. Gentle. To look at what you are feeling in moments of despair. To know where are you feeling it. To know what emotions come up. Neff mentions taking a self compassion break, to sit with yourself with soothing touch, relative silence, and say to yourself in moments of overwhelm…

 

1. This is a moment of suffering.

 

2. Suffering is a part of life.

 

3. May I be kind to myself in this moment.

 

4. May I give myself the compassion I need.

 

So tonight I did this. And it was good. This is post 145/365 in my #subversive #selfie project where I authentically #examine my #life through #imagery & the #written word - both the highs & the lows.

I love self-compassion so much!

It has helped me have a more gentle and understanding relationship with myself. It has given me powerful tools to help my clients develop a more positive relationship with themselves.

When I offer these skills to my clients in the context of healing and...

Are You Hard on Yourself? Most of us are because we weren't taught how to be kind and compassionate with ourselves when we mess up and don't know what we're doing. Don’t worry it’s not too late to learn!

Check out this video which encourages us to talk to ourselves with compassion.

When we apply both grace and truth to ourselves, we take a look at what we did wrong without saying it’s no big deal, or saying it was a disaster.

Applying self-compassion helps us handle our humanness and the situations we are in with empathy, concern, understanding and kindness. It also gives us the grace to accept, correct and let go of our mistakes.

I write from a faith perspective, integrating our faith and the Bible with the practice of self-compassion.

I feel so privileged to be at the service of a community of practice at work, and to be able to create this space where colleagues can come and share with others their experience, their knowledge, their methods, etc. Today it was our colleague @pinucciacontino who came to talk us about compassion in the workplace. Practicing compassion, first towards oneself and then towards others, not only has its place at work for better well-being but also makes the organization more resilient and efficient. My organisation, the European Commission, is already a compassionate one due to its objectives, not the least the promotion of peace. But too often we have issues with the how, on the ground. Pinuccia gave us some tips on how to act to improve, step by step. Grazie Pinuccia for the space you have created, for making us better understand what it means and how to be self-compassionate, compassionate for others and in the workplace.

My sketchnotes of Pinuccia's talk.

Why are people so afraid to describe themselves as a victim even when they are?

On a recent TV commercial, a famous athlete admitted that he had been suffering from a debilitating disease for years but had never told anyone. Then he said, “I’m not saying I am a victim, but I just want you to kno...

Overcoming shame with this antidote

We all experienced shame in childhood—whether it was from being teased or bullied on the playground, from always being the last one chosen to be on a team, from not knowing the answers when called upon in the classroom, or from being rejected by the girl or b...
