Self-Compassion Unveiled: A Guided Meditation with Chris Wilkins
We're acknowledging it and naming it. This is a moment of suffering. Suffering is a part of life. May I be kind to myself in this moment...
Ever feel like you're your own worst critic? Chris Wilkins knows the feeling and wants to help you change that. In this episode of 'Heal The Hurt', Chris offers a guided meditation focused on self-compassion. Imagine finding a quiet spot, free from distractions, where you can truly relax and let go. Chris gently guides listeners through a series of phrases designed to foster kindness towards oneself during tough times.
It's not about ignoring your struggles but acknowledging them and treating yourself with the same compassion you'd offer a friend. You'll be asked to think about a challenging situation in your life, something that's hard but not overwhelming. Then, Chris walks you through three key phrases: 'this is a moment of suffering', 'suffering is a part of life', and 'may I be kind to myself in this moment'.
These phrases help you recognize your pain, connect with the shared human experience, and offer yourself some much-needed kindness. This meditation isn't just a one-time thing; it's a tool you can use anytime you're feeling overwhelmed. If you're looking for a way to be kinder to yourself and navigate life's difficulties with a bit more grace, this episode might just be what you need.
