I could have taken soooo many quotes from a fabulous and radical book called 'Succulent Wild Woman' by Sark. Yes, it's true, a lot of it is very radical and not for all audiences, but I encourage all women to still give this book a spin!!! Amongst the bold statements are hugely inspiring and honest quotes!...
My boss brought this book in and left it on the table...Very cool move, in my opinion. With that, I stumbled upon it and found this quote that I love. It's about women supporting women and being kind to themselves...We don't hear these types of messages enough in our world! So here it is...
"Drench your self in self-kindness!...Women are very good at shining kindness outward, yet if you ask how kind they are to themselves, they often cry...Turn the kindness spotlight inward...Before we can move to healthier ways, we must be where we actually are...Radical self-acceptance is a connecting, soft, slow, and compassionate way of being. We can help each other...When you see your "sister" beating up on herself, take her weapons away..."
(the ... denote paragraph changes)
I love this message...Women supporting each otherto be empowered, self aware, and most importantly, kind to themselves and others. Who can argue the power in that!
