Don't Miss TONIGHT with Warriors for Life (WFL) & VFV - "Showing Self-Compassion!"

Updated: Aug 20, 2022

Drop in TONIGHT with Volunteers, Founder of WFL, and Veteran COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs and Bella Burroughs for Warriors for Life (WFL) Online Peer Support Group sponsored and presented by Victory for Veterans, Inc. Where all types of Warriors get together for “Hope and Healing” and where “Sharing is Caring!”


Invite a friend, tell a friend, and share with your friends they may need support or know someone who needs support!


Get connected, get involved, with Veterans, Service Members, First Responders, Military Families/Spouses, and Caretakers/Caregivers every Saturday Night!

TONIGHT’s Topic: “Showing Self-Compassion!”


Tune in with the “Colonel” and Bella Burroughs TONIGHT for a relaxing and open discussion around “Showing Self-Compassion!”

Self-criticism doesn’t work! There’s a smoother, less travelled road you can choose to take, and it’s the antidote to self-criticism. This is self-compassion.


Self-compassion is a beneficial alternative.


“Being open to and moved by one’s own suffering, experiencing feelings of caring and kindness toward oneself, taking an understanding, nonjudgmental attitude toward one’s inadequacies and failures, and recognizing that one’s experience is part of the common human experience.” – Kristin Neff, Psychologist & Self-Compassion Expert

In short, self-compassion is being an ally to yourself rather than an enemy.




Self-compassion involves three closely connected components: self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness.





Join us TONIGHT as we explore self-compassion and how it relates to invisible wounds and its benefits.

I personally don't agree that I am worth self or any other compassion. I have little to none at all worth, and basically just wasting oxygen. Despite my best intentions and actions I have never accomplished anything of use or value. Just being is equal to being a rock in a field, takes up space, and generally a hinderance. I appreciate those that will tolerate me and try to emulate their actions and attitudes, but always come up short. I loath the instant of my conception.
