Why Self-Kindness?
Being kind is the best thing you can be, but sometimes we can focus all our energy on doing things for others and forget about being kind to ourselves.
Just like a car needs fuel to run, we need to fill ourselves up with kindness in order to be the best we can be. Speaking kindly to ourselves is a simple but really powerful way to show ourselves some kindness. And this month’s challenge will help you do that!

What is a Tur-Shirt?
We have partnered with a very special company to bring you a brand new challenge. The Tur-Shirt Company makes ‘tur-shirts’ for children….which is like a t-shirt but with magical messages that only the wearer can read. The writing on a tur-shirt is written in a mirror-image, so it can only be read when you look at yourself in the mirror.
Just like in the real world, it’s how we see ourselves and not how others see us that really matters.
Design Your Own Tur-Shirt!
Your Self-Kindness Challenge is to design your very own Tur-Shirt using the template on our Challenge Sheet. You can make it as colourful as you wish, but the most important part is the positive message you write to yourself.
It must be written as a mirror image, starting with “I am” or “I can” … or anything you can think of that is kind to yourself.
