Self-compassion = neutral insight about the context, acceptance of one's humanness, and consideration of the role of any elements of past trauma. All wrapped in nonjudgmental and kind self-talk, similar to what you'd offer a friend.

Celebrate any new bit of positive self-talk, a choice towards healthier self-care, that extra effort you made to interrupt that potential salty reaction, or that act of taking responsibility after doing something your loved one experiences as hurtful!

You are making the necessary changes to be more of the person you want to be in the world!
You are awesome!

Slowwww down. We need to insert short and longer mind and body rest breaks far more often than we do.

In the rush of your to-do's, try to remember to randomly pause and "catch your breath," e.g., catch up with yourself.

Take three slow, deep belly breaths, where the exhale is 2 seconds longer than the inhale. Repeat.
Notice your rushed thoughts slow down and your chest tension dissipate.

And remember, you are awesome!

"Wise Pause Strategy" to build healthier values-based responses when feeling stressed:
Practice...practice...practice taking a pause before you respond to something mundane or routine. When you aren't activated, teach yourself to take a "wise pause" and take a deep slow breath. Repeat. Connect with your mind, heart, and body. Imprint this intent and feeling so you can gather yourself before you react.

With practice, in those stressful moments, you will be more inclined to respond vs. react.

Stressed? Retrieve the imprint. Pause. Think. Then, respond. Practicing will help your mind and body more easily remember your "wise pause strategy," so you can respond from your values and not from your anxiety or fears.
And remember: You are awesome!
