Self-compassion & healing your relationship with food
Self-compassion is a daily practice that is a supportive skill to nuture when healing your relationship with food. I refer to self-compassion as a "skill" because I think it takes time to practice and genuinely implement in a way that feels authentic. Having self-compassion in short means providing ourselves with the same kindness and care that we would give a good friend. Self-compassion is self-kindness versus self-judgement and criticism. Self-compassion is warmth, gentleness and understanding for your own hardships, challengings and dynamic emotions.
