In this week's episode we chat about compassionate practice. We have both been super keen to do an episode on compassion for a while now, given compassion is a core tenant of our practice. In this ep we went through some of the core features of compassion, how this can be used therapeutically, and developing self-compassion. We loved putting this episode together for you!
We cover:
- What is compassion and what are the benefits of compassionate practice?
- What does it mean to be in an active state of compassion.
- How compassion fits into the ‘haunted house’ of our brain.
- Working with the inner critic.
- Compassionate practice and neurodivergence.
- Strategies for compassionate practice and for activating a state of ‘rest’ in our nervous system.
