Episode Description from the Publisher

Self-kindness is one of the most powerful things we can cultivate on our healing journey. When we learn to meet ourselves with warmth instead of judgment, it creates a safe and supportive container for us to navigate the complexities of our inner world with real honesty and compassion. As we cultivate this kind of kindness toward ourselves, our nervous system softens, our inner voice gets gentler, and we become more able to love ourselves as we are. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a loving somatic exploration of what true self-kindness feels like in your body. We'll gently open to greater possibilities of self-kindness, and then explore how to embody that kindness in a tangible, felt way. And this is a practice that keeps deepening the more we return to it. Every time we come back to it, self-kindness becomes a little more natural, a little more familiar. Perfect for self-kindness, self-love, nervous system regulation, and cultivating a more compassionate relationship with yourself. Iffirmations for Self-Kindness What if I can soften my heart towards myself today? What if I’m worthy of love and kindness … especially from myself? What would it be like to consistently treat myself with more warmth and more kindness? What if it’s safe for me to become kinder and kinder to myself? What if I could feel more appreciation for the beauty within me? What if I could feel more acceptance for the struggle within me? What if I can look beneath my stories of self-judgment and connect more with my true self? What if I could be gentle with myself even when things are difficult? What if I can honor my imperfections and allow myself to grow from my mistakes? Who could I become if I had more and more consistent access to self-compassion and kindness? More and more I choose to be kind to myself. More and more I choose me.
