SelfKind: Conversations in self-care, kindness and compassion for highly sensitive people
Hi and welcome to SelfKind with me, Erica Webb. This is a podcast for Highly Sensitive People (HSP) who want to navigate the tricky bits of their sensitivity with more ease, while finding their sensitivity super powers. Here, we're all about being, living and moving through a lens of self compassion and kindness.
As your host, I meet you as a fellow HSP. I know what it's like to feel like things are too loud, too bright and just ... too much. In my work as a registered counsellor and mindful movement coach, I've supported myself and my clients to find ways to embrace their sensitivity that centre on self-compassion, nervous system regulation, self-awareness and, ultimately, self-love.
From mindfulness, mindful movement, joy seeking and a zillion and one practices in between, here you'll find space to be fully you - fully human - and the tools to navigate the tricky bits of having a highly sensitive nervous system.
I’m thrilled you’re here.

Ep 118: What actually is somatics?
What is this 'somatics' you speak of, Erica? I get this question a lot and, honestly, I thought I'd already done an episode on this, but it seems I may have been wrong! So ... let's dive in, shall we?
In this episode I talk about what actually makes a movement 'somatic' and the theory behind what's happening when we 'pandiculate' (which is what somatics ultimately is).
If you've been wondering what somatics is, this is the episode for you!
Questions? Anything I said clear as mud? Come chat and let me know! You'll find me on my website, Instagram or Facebook
