Skills 4 Livin'

In today's episode Jennifer Cobb talks about self-compassion and gives us some tips for cultivating more. It's a concept that most of us are familiar with, but we tend to think that too much elf-compassion means that you just accept every flaw as acceptable, and nothing needs to change. Jennifer is quick to point out the 2 components of Self-Compassion: 1. Validation 2. Dialectics   Jennifer skillfully illustrates the difference between the 2 and how using them effectively can lay the groundwork for self-compassion.
