Quotes to ponder:
"Self-compassion allows us to see our flaws or limitations without hating ourselves, and therefore, we can take steps to make changes."
"If we take a moment to pause to see this instead as a challenge, a natural bump in the road of life, we can change the way we feel inside when facing the very same external circumstances."
"Anything we can do to help squeeze more joy, peace, and meaning out of our day is a worthy pursuit that everyone deserves."
