Be Kind and Gentle With Yourself

With the current economic downturn we are experiencing, I wanted to write and remind you to be kind and gentle with yourself. 
Challenges regarding money can cause stress and old fears may show up…  The worry about not enough money or loss of it…
or the negative patterns of self criticism and judgement may kick in…

All of these old negative patterns do nothing to take care of us.  The best way to deal with these negative feelings is to be kind
and gentle with yourself.  Ask yourself:  “Was I doing the best I could?”  “Knowing what I know now, what steps am I prepared
to take to change my relationship with money and create a new loving approach.” 

I believe conscious spending and personal stewardship of money are a few keys to creating balance in one’s financial life.  By
clarifying one’s relationship with money we can begin to make new choices.  The most important part is to stay out of “beating
yourself up” for past decisions.

Honour yourself, recognize you are doing the best you can and silence the voice of criticism, and remember… Be Kind and Gentle with Yourself.

Today I,
Create a loving, respectful relationship with my money
Trust the process of life
Know my income is constantly increasing from expected and unexpected sources.
Am kind and gentle and loving with myself and others

And so it is...
