Get ready to open up and heal! This week's podcast is on self-acceptance, self-forgiveness & self-compassion! We also talk about "Mothering the self" - a SUPER helpful concept to help you stop looking to others for validation and worth!
Some take-a-ways include:
SELF-COMPASSION is:
+Self-kindness - being warm and understanding of yourself
+Common humanity - realizing all humans suffer and make mistakes
+Mindfulness - observe your thoughts and feelings from an open, receptive and non-judgemental state without trying to suppress or deny them
The THREE parts of "Mothering the self" are:
1. Recognize you are worthy of love
2. Perceive your own needs (journaling is great!)
3. Meet you own needs (this builds trust and security!)
Self-acceptance, forgiveness and compassion are key elements of self-love and you deserve them all! May you listen to this podcast and find new ways to give yourself self-compassion!
Our feature song is the epic Alanis Morissette - "That I would be good"
