How do I respect and love myself?
I like the idea of self-compassion. How can I practice that?
Practicing self-compassion involves three key components: self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness. Self-kindness means treating yourself with warmth and understanding, like you would treat a good friend. Common humanity means recognizing that everyone experiences challenges and difficulties in life, so you're not alone in your struggles. Mindfulness means being aware of your negative self-talk and challenging those thoughts with more positive and accurate ones.
