Nurture Self-Compassion

Be gentle with yourself during this process. Self-discovery can be challenging, and it's important to approach it with kindness and patience toward yourself.

Self-compassion involves treating yourself with the same kindness with which you'd treat a loved one. Self-compassion consists of three ingredients:

• Self-kindness: Offering warmth and understanding to yourself.
• Common humanity

Self-compassion is treating yourself with the same kindness and consideration that you would offer to someone else.

Self-compassion helps you cope with tough situations and helps you to be more supportive and caring in your relationships.
