A good intention deserves a little follow-through.

I wanted to resource my body for a day of teaching. My breakfast gave me a useful reminder: the “why” and the action need to work together.

The same question can matter during a major life change. If you need a break, what kind of break leaves you more present afterward?

Kindness can include the discipline to choose that.

Here's a small question I've been sitting with:

Is what I'm doing to care for myself actually helping me feel cared for?

Before your next choice, name what you're hoping for. Energy? Rest? A little room to breathe?

Then check with your body afterward. Do you feel more able to meet the day, or less?

That answer can help you adjust. No scolding required.

After my sister Lauren died, I went back to work soon after her funeral. I needed to think about something other than her death for a while.

I understand why I chose work. I also wonder whether it gave me the kind of break I needed.

Sometimes we need relief from the hard thing. We can be curious about the way we seek it without judging ourselves for needing a break.

What helps you feel more resourced after a difficult day?

I could have told myself, “It's fine. Don't think about it.”

I also could have scolded myself for eating too much.

Neither would have helped me hear what my body was telling me.

For me, kindness meant getting curious. It also meant being willing to stop when I'd had enough, even when the French toast was delicious.

What does being kind to yourself ask of you today?

Crème brûlée French toast for breakfast at a yoga retreat? Yes, please. 😋

This weekend in Massachusetts, I had a long day of teaching ahead. I went back for more French toast because I wanted to give my body enough energy.

Then I finished and felt overstuffed.

The intention was real. The way I carried it out left me feeling less ready for the day.

Have you ever made a choice to take care of yourself, then noticed it didn't give you what you needed?

Not everyone has earned access to your most vulnerable truth.

We all need people who can hear the part that isn’t polished. The anger. The fear. The grief. The thought we’re afraid to say out loud.

People who don’t rush to fix us or change the subject.

People who can simply say, “Tell me more.”

Who in your life has the capacity to stay with you when the conversation gets hard?

What happens in your body when you keep swallowing what needs to be said?

Maybe your chest tightens.

Maybe your throat closes.

Maybe the words keep circling in your head long after the conversation ends.

Before you speak, take one breath. Feel your feet. Notice where the unsaid words live in your body.

Then begin with: “What I need to say is…”

You don’t have to say it perfectly. You can say it with honesty and care.

Someone asks, “How are you?”

And we say, “I’m fine.”

Not because we’re fine.

Because we don’t want to make the room uncomfortable. We don’t want to affect the people around us. We don’t want to be too much.

This happens so often around grief and the other painful changes life brings.

But carrying the hard thing alone does not make it lighter.

Who in your life can hear the honest answer?

Have we become so focused on never offending anyone that we stop saying what is true?

We stay quiet.

We soften the truth until it disappears.

Or we swing the other way and say whatever we want without caring how it lands.

Neither one creates real connection.

Can I speak honestly without using my truth as a weapon? Can I care about your feelings without becoming responsible for protecting you from every uncomfortable emotion?

That’s the balance.

A few days ago, I was hanging out with some old high school friends.

We started laughing about growing up in the ’80s. No cell phones. No social media. No permanent record of every ridiculous thing we said.

Thank goodness. 😂

We said what was on our minds. Sometimes that honesty was refreshing. Sometimes we were careless.

Both can be true.

How do we hold on to honesty without losing care for the person sitting across from us?
