S2Ep7: The Power of Self-Compassion
Episode description
Why is it that we’re so often able to show love and compassion for other people, but can rarely find it for ourselves? We can often be so hard on ourselves, feeding our minds a constant string of negativity and self-criticism...
But when we learn self-compassion, showing the same kindness, support and encouragement to ourselves that we show others - every aspect of our life will change for the better!
On today's podcast Sharp Best Health's guest Susan Knier, a Sharp HealthCare senior rehabilitation education specialist and is a certified Compassion Cultivation Teacher*, shows us how we can be compassionate with ourselves by discovering the three main components of self-compassion: kindness, humanity, and mindfulness.
