Manchester’s Christie Taylor: “How I Came to Understand the Meaning of Self Compassion” (via Huffington Post)

Manchester’s own Christie Taylor has had another essay published on the Huffington Post. Follow the link below to read the whole piece.

I didn’t know what self compassion was until Christmas time, 2008.

My twin girls were 3 ½ and my son would be 2-years-old in just over a month. My husband, kids and I were all going to stay at my in-laws house, which is about an hour away, for a few days over the Christmas holiday.

Also staying at my in-laws were my husband’s two sisters and their families. It was a tight fit, but with the fire going and the cousins playing, it felt warm and cozy.
