Manage episode 446313259 series 3551861
What if you could transform anxiety with a simple shift in mindset?
Discover how self-compassion can be the game changer you've been searching for. In this episode I explore the profound impact of self-compassion on coping with anxiety, and I explain how a critical inner voice can fuel anxiety, whereas treating oneself with kindness can activate the calming parasympathetic nervous system. I guide you through the three core elements of self compassion: self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness, and discuss the science behind how self compassion can help ease anxiety. By the end of the episode you will have practical techniques to try at home that promise to calm your nervous system and help you tackle life's challenges with confidence and ease.
Highlights include:
02:34 The Science Behind Self-Compassion
05:48 Practical Techniques for Self-Compassion
