A practice of self-compassion

‘Many of us have complicated, and often negative, feelings about ourselves. . . . When we can see ourselves as just another imperfect human, equally deserving of love as anyone else, it becomes easier to offer love to ourselves.

Kevin Griffin, “May All Beings Be Happy”’

A metta meditation is always a good way to start the day. Wish yourself and all sentient beings loving kindness.

‘Having appreciation for yourself, for the world, and for your life is really important. Why? Because we all have basic innate goodness.

Another beautiful practice in #Buddhism is the meditation ‘the precious human life’

This means reflecting on how precious this life is and it’s an excercise in gratitude and helps definig priorities.

Especially being born here in The West, we live in Freedom and can practice any religion or philosophy we want. Where we have access to all these lessons. We can make our own life choices. That’s something to cherish.
