Compassion really has the components that Jesus displayed. Self-kindness. Jesus never beat himself up. Common to humanity. It tells us multiple times in the scripture that the things that are happening to us are not uncommon to humanity, that we have all been locked up in disobedience so God can show mercy to us all.

Whether you're new to the concept of self-care or have been practicing it for years, Tanya's reflections and practical tips will inspire you to see it as a holistic practice that nourishes both your spirit and your emotions.
