Mindfulness teaches us to turn towards our difficulty and self compassion helps us bring kind attention.
When you are surfing 🏄 the best way to deal with a big wave is to dive into it.
The same is true when we face difficult emotions.
Mindful self compassion strategies are life skills that allow you to respond wisely to situations.

Do you make time to play?
I am enjoying the sun in Palm Springs and my goal on this trip is to play. Play has been proven to boost creativity and happiness. How do you play?
My list of fun:
More reading ( this is play for me)
Tennis / pickle ball
Riding bikes
Swimming
Art- tinker projects around the house (not renos)
Goofy behaviour with my kids
Fart jokes are always funny!
I know I am out of balance when I get too serious and I laugh less often. As adults, many of us loose our ability to play.... We need to practice the art of play!
