“Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.”

The balance of fierce and tender self-compassion, created by the amazing Johnine Byrne from See Your Words 🙏🏽

The image visually tells the story of the need to balance tender acceptance with fierce action in order to alleviate our suffering. When we do this, we have the sense of wholeness that spurs inner healing and outer change. 🦋

We’ve shared our stories. We’ve posted on social media. We’ve let the people we care about know they are not alone. It’s vital we keep that up. But now it’s time we do something more.

What a wonderful way to start the new year…

31 days of Self-Compassion from ✨ Love this as a way to start out the new year 🎆

Starting off 2022 with a little daily self-compassion 💗

Having goals, and dreaming big is amazing, and self-compassion is the support to get you through when that road gets bumpy.

Self-compassion says, “It’s okay, I’ll try again tomorrow” when it feels like your millionth failure.

Self-compassion says, “I’m not there yet, but that doesn’t mean I’ll never be” when it feels like you’re falling behind.

And self-compassion says, “I’m not perfect. I’m human. I will try my best in however that looks from day to day, and know that I am already enough” when the world feels heavy and nothing seems to be going right.

I hope this year, as the road of 2022 unravels before you, I hope it is filled with so many joys! But when doubt, worry, and judgement creep in, I hope you give yourself (and others) compassion and space to be human.

✨ Cheers to a kinder year ✨
