You can’t hate yourself into self-love. It doesn’t work like that.

You have to decide that you’re done being at war with yourself, and that you’re ready to practice a new way forward.

Just for today, try practicing compassion when you catch yourself in self-judgment. Notice how it feels.

Here’s one question to ask yourself the next time you start stress about something you know will completely derail your day.

In honor of black history month, I want to shine a light on Toi Derricotte’s famous quote: “Joy is an act of resistance.”

In these dark times, practicing joy as an act of resistance is paramount. It sends the message: You will not defeat us.

And fuels us to keep fighting back against oppression.
