423: Self Compassion as the Antidote to Self Criticism & Negative Body Talk

Self compassion may sound loving and helpful as you connect back into your body and learn how to respect it, but what exactly does it mean to be compassionate with yourself?

And this is simply not true. Listen to today's podcast episode to learn more!
