How To Cultivate Self-Compassion - Authentic Parenting

Marion Rose, PhD talks about what self-compassion is, how it has helped her, common myths about it and how you can cultivate a self-compassion practice. We also talk about what makes parenting hard. What does she mean when she asks: are you hitting yourself with emotional sticks? Prior to becoming a mother she had done a lot of healing. She also had a great deal of experience in working with mothers and infants and in her own words she felt really prepared for motherhood.

It was after her divorce that Marion found herself in the midst of an emotional hardship. It triggered past wounds of separation in her as she had a premature birth and as a baby she was in a NICU.

She also walks us through a simple yet powerful practice she has developed called the Inner Loving Mother and more.
