Stories of Astonishing Light with KJ Nasrul
Seeking Sanctuary and Self Compassion | Arielle Schwartz
KJ embraces her inner fangirl as she welcomes today's guest, clinical psychologist, yoga teacher, international speaker and author, Dr. Arielle Schwartz. Dr Schwartz is a leading voice in the healing of PTSD and complex trauma and she is the author of six books incorporating an integrative (somatic psychology, EMDR, mindfulness practices), strength-based approach to trauma treatment.
In a compassionate conversation, KJ and Dr. Schwartz honor the courage it takes to practice true self compassion.
Takeaways:
- Notice your body’s coping mechanisms.
- Take the risk to put your gift in the world. Someone will be impacted by it.
- Self Compassion practices means a willingness to let go of prescription and of trying to protocol or predict where we're going.
