Moving into Self-Compassion

“If you must look back, do so forgivingly. If you must look forward, do so prayerfully. However, the wisest thing you can do is be present in the present… gratefully.” Maya Angelou

For me forgiveness and compassion are integrally linked. Sometimes we think of forgiveness as a mental exercise. I find it useful to feel into self-forgiveness and bask in the energy, which tends to invite self-compassion in also.
