43. Random Acts of Kindness Towards Yourself, with Dr Kristin Neff (Replay)

This topic never gets old, so I'm giving the episode another play!

How far has being incredibly shitty to yourself got you? Today’s guest, Dr. Kristin Neff, is not just an expert on self-compassion; she's a pioneer in the field, authoring 'Fierce Self-Compassion' and transforming how we view kindness towards ourselves. In this deep dive, Kristin unravels the intricate balance between the tender and fierce aspects of self-compassion, revealing how it's not just a personal healing tool but a radical act of breaking gender norms and societal expectations. As we explore the misunderstood paths of self-compassion, Kristin shapes its profound impact on mental health, relationships, and even our performance in life. Prepare to shift your perspective and learn to embrace both the gentle and the bold within you, because this conversation is about redefining strength through self-kindness.

Kristin discusses:

  • The essence and importance of self-compassion
  • Differentiating self-compassion from self-pity and self-esteem
  • Gender differences in self-compassion practices
  • Self-compassion as a form of radical authenticity and political act
  • The wide-ranging benefits of practicing self-compassion
  • Practical methods to cultivate self-compassion in daily life
  • Overcoming cultural and societal barriers to practicing self-compassion
  • The role of physical touch in conveying self-compassion to oneself
