Practicing self-compassion during unexpected disruptions: Despite unintended disruptions, remember self-compassion to navigate life's challenges and keep moving forward
Even when unforeseen circumstances disrupt our plans and cause us to feel like we've let people down, it's essential to practice self-compassion. As Kate Cocker shared in her story, unexpected events like a car breaking down or being ill can make us feel out of our comfort zone and filled with guilt. But, as her managing editor reminded her, none of these situations were intentional, and it's crucial to remember that everything will work out in the end. So, whether you've had a challenging week or are feeling overwhelmed, remember that you didn't mean for things to go wrong, and you'll get through it. Self-compassion is an essential tool to help us navigate life's ups and downs and keep moving forward.
