5 ways to cultivate compassion


1. Be kind to yourself. Start and finish the day gently. Give yourself this gift every day.

2. At the end of each day, have some quiet time during which you dwell on what you've done well that day.

3. When you make a mistake stop your critical voice and remind yourself that its ok, you don't need to be perfect.

4. Do one self nurturing thing every week (every day is even better.) It might be a massage, a bath,  wearing a favourite outfit, or cooking a lovely meal.

5. When you look in the mirror, really look. Acknowledge the vulnerable yet beautiful person looking back at you.
