I Expand My Compacity for Compassion

I expand my capacity for compassion.
I expand my capacity for compassion for
others and myself. I am learning to be
self-compassionate.

My old programming taught me to take
care of others at my own expense.
However, I have now learned that it is
better to show myself compassion. By
showing myself compassion, I have more
compassion to give to others.

I am grateful that I have learned to take
better care of myself. Now that I have
become more kind to myself, I am able to
extend more kindness to others, rather than
be resentful to them when I am too short of
time to take care of everyone else.

I have come a long way down the path of
self-compassion. I am now aware of when I
get out of balance. I am grateful that I am
conscious of my boundaries.

I am happy that I have learned to take care
of myself and thereby have extra to give to
others.

I start my day with loving acts of kindness
toward myself. I give myself care. I take a
wonderful salt bath and take time for
grooming. I look kindly at my image in the
mirror. I say kind words to myself.
I keep compassionate thoughts in my
mind all day.

Now that I have filled my cup of compassion
for myself, I have plenty of overflow to
share with others. I give from a full cup.
Today, with greater self-care and
compassion, I can help others from a more
empowered position. I am grateful for this
newfound knowledge that benefits me and
everyone else in my world.
