Ep. 78 Self-Compassion and Healing Old Grief
In this episode I share the progress I've been making using the tools of self-compassion I learned several weeks ago from Kristin Neff's website: www.self-compassion.org. I also talk about a recent resurgence of old inner messages of guilt and shame about my father's death related to working on an old manuscript. This episode includes:
- How self-compassion has changed how I view myself and also how I perceive criticism from others.
- Why my old stored feelings of grief and guilt have been coming into view recently.
- How self-blame and shame actually discourage us from utilizing self-compassion.
- How old threads of guilt are dissolving away quickly as I apply self-compassion.
- The steps of self-compassion I'm finding helpful.
