Message: “Cultivate compassion for yourself and others today. Recognize that everyone, including yourself, is doing the best they can with the knowledge and resources they have.”
Exercise: Practice a loving-kindness meditation. Sit quietly and repeat the phrases, “May I be happy. May I be healthy. May I be safe. May I live with ease.” Then extend these wishes to others.
Quote: “Compassion is the basis of morality.” – Arthur Schopenhauer
