Self-acceptance isn’t always easy.
We all have days where we feel like we could be taller, smarter, skinnier, stronger or wealthier. We have days where we feel like we could be better friends, mothers, fathers, sons, sisters, husbands or wives. Judgement is something we try to avoid, but somehow we constantly entertain it.
Judgement brings extreme feelings. Judgment prevents us from self-knowledge, sincere relationships and living our most meaningful lives. Judgement is the ultimate barrier.
Mindfulness is our path to radical self-acceptance.
The most powerful way to undo judgement is forgiveness. Forgiveness restores our awareness.
Today forgive yourself. While you are meditating or just throughout the day when you notice judgements coming into your mind. Acknowledge them and let them pass. Say, “I forgive myself for my judgments.”
Trust in your personal power. Be open to miracles. And when you make a mistake again – forgive yourself quickly.
Hi Chris!
Your Mindful Monday postings ALWAYS give me a welcome shot in the arm, even though I rarely
read them in the mornings — too hee.
Thanks for doing this.
Blessings,
