Accept Yourself With Compassion

A one-minute practice for replacing harsh self-criticism with honest, respectful self-acceptance. Compassion here does not mean avoiding responsibility; it means creating the inner conditions in which real change becomes easier.

Read the meditation slowly

This written reflection is an original companion practice prepared for Brahma Kumaris Philippines around the same theme. It is not a verbatim transcript of Sister Jayanti's recording.

I pause and notice the tone of voice I have been using inside my own mind.

I remind myself that a mistake is something I did; it is not the total definition of who I am.

I am a soul with the ability to learn, choose and change.

I replace one harsh judgement with an honest and compassionate thought.

I can take responsibility without attacking myself.

With self-respect, I become more able to improve.

For this moment, I accept myself as I am and encourage myself toward what I can become.
