Episode 13: A practice to cultivate self-compassion for healing childhood trauma
Peggy Oliveira
Episode Description:
Childhood trauma can have a lasting impact on our lives, affecting our self-worth, relationships, and overall well-being. It can lead to shame and a deep sense of not being enough.
Healing is a process of many practices practiced over time.
Self-compassion is a vital component of this process and practice, offering a gentle and important way to address the wounding and foster deep core healing.
In today’s video, I’ll walk you through one of the practices in Deeply Rooted, my book which focuses on cultivating self-compassion, self-acceptance & healing.
I’d love for you to join me in this practice and let me know what came up for you by sharing it in the comments below.
Together, let's foster a world where self-compassion flourishes, and healing becomes more accessible for everyone. Together we heal. ❤️
