Though I can feel more compassion for me and for others through this practice (bravo Tara !!) it made me decide to want to avoid some people. And with some I’ll want to try harder…and practice more..
thank you Tara for reminding me that i have to love myself more. by using the u turn self compassion, I feel less angry with myself and better understanding of my vulnerability and other.

A remarkably strong but flexible human being with the ability to weather storms and shine brighter for the experience giving others a means to navigate without stress or fear.
I would be less angry and more understanding of the situation with the other person Physically I would be calmer
I would be more accepting of my outstanding jobs and not feel judgmental of myself
Thank you Tara
This video has explained and outlined something for me that I have experienced myself and couldn’t put into words nor repeat it so easily because I „lacked“ the formula.. deep thank you
The practice made me think about my own vulnerability. While I did feel softness towards myself and could not feel the same way about my friend who hurt me. She keeps hurting me again and again and I want to protect myself against being hurt.
the thing is: anger and blame give us some kind of energy to do things. it is very easy to fall in this trap. it used to be my source of energy. during covid 19 i learned that the source of my energy should be love. though it is very hard to live in a world who see that way of living as a failure. thank you all to help me and see that i am not alone in this path of love. it is really a choice. thank you one again.
Thank you Tara. Anger,blame & judgment have been my fellow-companions since early childhood. Only in these latter years, do I now have to seriously, acknowledge, accept and learn to love these characters. And learn to feel, their presence. And listen to the cacophony. The cause of much trauma & suffering. Thank you Tara, for reminding me of rich Heart energies, which are able to surface when I allow for a more broad & wider perspective. And, in doing so, to feel the truth, and depth, of my own pain. J
My resentment was towards someone I find very controlling. My U turn led me to the feelings of powerlessness when growing up in a chaotic. Alcoholic home. I felt the fear of that powerlessness. When I looked at the person I resented, I remembered they too grew up in a violent alcoholic home and I recognized their need for control to be like my own as a struggle against the deeper powerlessness felt as children. This was a powerful exercise for me. Thank you Tara!

I had a well of emotion that I had been holding onto which I was able to let go of.
It definitely made a big difference this process and it came at the right timing just has I had been triggered by someones remarks.. I was able to turn my attention away from what was said to my own hurt feelings that where surfacing.. I am so grateful to you for this process as you have really made a big difference to how I feel about the other person in this moment.
I have a brother who is mentally ill, whom i have worked very hard to help for many years, at great physical and financial cost, while I have felt that his behavior towards me has routinely been abusive, unkind and truly inconsiderate of my efforts. If I acknowledge my feelings and accept the fact that he must have great hurt and fear to behave as he does, then i hope to be able to communicate better, improve my understanding, strengthen my boundaries and improve the relationship. I find that firm compassion, and not reacting, is working.
to eliminate my attachment to my stories of past traumas and hurt, which triggers my PTSD symptoms, and fuels my rage.
forgive myself for my past mistakes, and becoming kinder, more compassionate toward myself and others.
I would be a more pleasant person. I would live more in harmony with myself and with others. I would have an inner calm of serenity. I would be happy, and this happiness would come from my heart and I would be authentic. I would be able to have more empathy because I would be coming from my own place of understanding of myself and my pain and see how the other person might even have more pain and suffering. This would open up more space for healing of our hearts. And creating more love. We all need more love.
Sometimes doing a uturm can bring up rage and grief, for the compassion that was never received, it’s like It hurts too much to let it in, or too scary
