You’re not alone. 

Even Aharon in this weeks parshah felt this (my interpretation of talmud yerushalmi).

Why Do We Blame Ourselves When Things Go Wrong?

After offering sacrifices, he thought something like, “I messed up. The Creator’s mad at me.” 

He got so stuck in his head that nothing good could happen.

What Turned Things Around for Aharon?

What happened next?

Moshe stepped in.  Moshe wasn’t angry at himself.  He prayed with Aharon, and suddenly The Creator showed up.

Why?

Because being mad at yourself blocks good things from coming your way.

What’s the Secret to Practicing Self-Compassion?

Here’s the secret:

If you’re stuck feeling not good enough, find someone who’s kind to themselves.  Let them help you see you’re worthy too.

Compassion unlocks connection. Stop beating yourself up. 

Let kindness in.

Why do I feel guilty even when I do everything right?

You’re not alone. Even Aharon in this week’s parshah felt this. After offering sacrifices, he thought, “I messed up. The Creator’s mad at me.” He got so stuck in his head that nothing good could happen. Being mad at yourself blocks good things from coming your way.

How do I stop being angry at myself?

In the story, Moshe stepped in for Aharon. Moshe wasn’t angry at himself, so he could simply pray with Aharon, and The Creator showed up. If you’re stuck feeling not good enough, find someone who’s kind to themselves and let them help you see you’re worthy too.

What’s the secret to feeling worthy again?

Here’s the secret: find someone who’s kind to themselves, and let them help you see you’re worthy too. Compassion unlocks connection between people. Staying mad at yourself only keeps you stuck in your own head, so stop beating yourself up, and let kindness in instead.

Why is self-compassion important?

Being mad at yourself blocks good things from coming your way. Compassion unlocks connection, while self-blame keeps you stuck in your head. This story shows that letting kindness in, the way Moshe let kindness reach Aharon, matters more than never making a mistake.
