The Importance of Self Compassion

RITUAL by Sageborn

Anna Rapson rejoins Stephanie to discuss the power of a self compassion practice and how to get started today. 

Also, hear more from Anna on Facing Anxiety to Build Resilience (Episode 1).

"The science is really clear in terms of a self compassion practice and how essential it is in order to build our own resilience no matter what it is we are facing. Whether it's a pandemic, or healing from a type of loss, or having struggles with addiction - even if it's something like rage, fear or anxiety - it doesn't even need to be something big it can even just be coping with daily life demands - the practice of self compassion is shown in the research over and over to build our resilience." - Anna Rapson
