Lesson Overview
1.9 – Practicing Self-Compassion During Setbacks: Speak to yourself like you would speak to a friend. Name the difficulty and your feelings without judgment. Remind yourself that many adults return to school and struggle. Give your body care first with rest, food, or a short walk. Review what is in your control today and choose one step. Rewrite negative thoughts into balanced, honest statements. Set a gentle plan to re-enter study after a missed day. Ask for support from a classmate or advisor when needed. Thank yourself for trying again despite discomfort. Use setbacks as signals to adjust pace, not to quit.
