JAKARTA - Accepting all the shortcomings that exist within us is certainly not an easy thing. Humans often try hard to do anything so that they can be well received by other people and the surrounding environment. It often makes us forget that there is something far more important than just getting the acceptance and validation of others, namely ourselves.

It is very important that you understand, accept and treat yourself as best you can. One of the things you can do to make it happen is to do self-compassion.

Self-compassion is how we accept and be kind to ourselves sincerely. Fully aware that humans are far from perfect, and can accept the imperfections that exist within us. To be able to achieve all of that, you must be able to understand every emotion that is in yourself as best as possible. Fear, anxiety, sadness, loss, hurt, or anger. Feelings can be one of the biggest challenges in life.

Often the brain forces us to think about things that are out of control. Thinking of all the worst possibilities and negative things that may not even happen.

Self-compassion is one of the best solutions to fight all negative thoughts that arise within you. You can start doing this self-compassion by treating yourself like a friend, being a good observer and changing our perspective when we are in trouble. You can also write to get rid of all the negative things that disturb your mind. Writing is one of the best methods to channel one's emotions.

In addition, you also have to start getting used to giving positive affirmations by talking about good things about yourself. You should also realize that caring and being selfish is your primary duty. Don't push yourself too hard.

Applying this self-compassion will help bring a good impact on your mental health. According to the Journal of Personality Research, people who apply self-compassion techniques tend to have a lower risk of depression. This is because when we apply self-compassion, we can see things broadly and are not tied to one point of view.

Doing self-compassion exercises can also increase feelings of calm and security when you are faced with a problem. Self-compassion can have a positive effect on improving mental function and increasing feelings of self-love and improving your quality of life.
