Self-compassion is a crucial skill. Life offers daily opportunities for us to
screw up and fill the parent-guilt vault. Spill water. Miss a deadline. Yell at
your kid. And when you do, what should your internal dialogue sound like? Is it
A) What an idiot, you idiot or B) Shit happens. I’ll do better next time. When
put like this, the option for self-compassion (uh, it’s B) should win in a
landslide. It’s supportive and calming. But, in the moment, when you’re mad at
yourself for, say, yelling at your kids or missing a deadline, it isn’t that
easy. Self-criticism serves a purpose, sure. But self-compassion should, nine
times out of ten, be the default. We need to be easier on ourselves. If not, we
create a breeding ground for shame, self-hatred, and other such emotions — all
things that can affect your family, too. So, how do you get your inner critic to
cram it? Try to feed it less often.

something. “We know this logically, but we forget it. We need to remind
ourselves,” says Kristen Neff, one of the leading minds in self-compassion.

Be kind. Think of what you’d say to a buddy who just told you he lost his temper
with his kid. Now say that to yourself in a warm tone of voice.

Don’t Take Breakfast Shortcuts, Just Eat Eggs
[[link removed]]
It’s tempting to fall back on dull, not particularly nutritious breakfast
options — particularly before you’ve had that first cup of coffee — but don’t
deny yourself or your family the nutrient-rich powerhouse that also happens to
be delicious: eggs. Eggs can be part of a heart-healthy diet for healthy adults,
according to the American Heart Association. The high-quality protein and key
nutrients found in eggs support the well-being of family members of all ages.
And if the heart-healthy benefits weren’t enough to convince you, the recipes
below show just how delicious and versatile eggs can be.
