The Self-Compassion Project

Be kind to yourself.

Here's a great resource for you.

This is my sweet dog, Lily, who is no longer with us. I found this picture and thought it might be a good reminder for all of us.

For a lot of us this is crisis is bringing up past trauma around food insecurity, chronic illness, housing insecurity and so much more that we weren't prepared ...for. If you find that suddenly a long hidden, hurt and scared part of yourself seems to be taking over at times remember that you are not alone. And remember that the part of you that says you cannot get through this is speaking from a time when you thought that you couldn't get through what was happening - but you can, because you did. You are not just the you who thought you couldn't make it through, you are the you who DID make it through.
