From Center for Mindful Self-Compassion Public Circles of Practice.

Stop, Be Still, Put It All Down, And Rest (with Kindness).

You do not have to carry all of It, all the time.  Profound peace comes from letting it all go, putting it all down, however you want to say it.  It doesn't mean pushing it away, though.  It means releasing it, releasing the grip it has on you.  And since this is MSC, we do this with a profound sense of kindness, compassion, and tenderness.  Because the act of putting it down can be painful.  And because there is pain, our move is to be kind.  This takes lots of practice...practice putting it down and practice being kind while doing so.
