Live Online Mindful Self Compassion
The relationship we have with our bodies is life long and evolves over time. Every decade things shift. I have judge my own body and others.
I got my first mammogram. It was no big deal.
I have been an active person all my life. Recently - I stop moving as much. Moving to Protection Island makes me move. I have to haug all my groceries and gas for the golf cart. No store on the island.
Only the Dingy Dock pub.
I chop wood, dig holes and haug heavy loads down the boat ramp and back up.
I missed moving.
Recently I have started listening to Maintenance Phase. - I love it as it changes my assumptions and has been great for my relationship with my body.
Highly recommended.

This podcast episode focuses on Self compassion and the women who formalized its practice. Kristen Neff was a basket case in graduate school - hearing her story was profound.
I would invite you to have a listen.

Show Hidden Brain, Ep Being Kind to Yourself - Oct. 11, 2021
I’m a mother of 2 kids. What a wild ride it is being a parent. My self compassion practice allows me to enjoy the good times and be present in the difficult times.
As I learned the language of self compassion, I shared it with my kids. We hold kindness as our central value.
Self compassion is not weak. There is both a fierce and soft side to this practice. Standing up for yourself is self compassion. Boundaries - telling someone to strew off. All part of fierce self compassion.
Teaching your kids to be fierce in the world. I want my kids to use their voice when something is not fair.
Be fierce out there. Ask for what you need.
My kids are finding their way in the world. I tell them they don’t have to hug if they don’t want to. I support ‘some’ sassy behaviour. Go ahead kids, throw down some boundaries when others are behaving badly.
