Be Kind to Yourself
Everywhere you look, there is conflict, but did you know one of your biggest accusers may be the person who lives behind your ears?

The world is full of critics, isn't it? In fact, I was listening to Dr. Gary Chapman (5 Love Languages) just this week, and he was talking about how our culture in particular is a culture of confrontation. Everywhere you look, there is conflict, but did you know one of your biggest accusers may be the person who lives behind your ears?
That's right, very often we are our biggest critics. I discovered this many years ago when I paid attention to that inner dialogue. I was shocked at how much grace I had for other people, but how little I had for myself. I was nit-picky, perfectionistic, and plain unkind to myself. I knew I needed to change, or there would be no hope for a stress-free future.
How about you? Have you listened to yourself lately? Are you compassionate toward yourself and others or do you expect perfection? Share your insights in our discussion forum.

Libby Wright, mother of four who homeschools, is an original founder of SupplementRelief.com in 2010. She suffered through challenging diseases including Interstitial Cystitis, Graves and Lyme. After years of little progress with traditional medicine, she pursued integrative medicine, applied what she learned, and got healthier. She became passionate about wanting others to experience the same "relief" she had come to know, and SupplementRelief.com was born. She is now managing her illness with a lot of prayer, a lot of nutrition/supplements, and a little prescription medicine. She has been able to resume her normal life and, while there is no cure for her particular conditions, she is able to cope, enjoy every day, and encourage others.
