Episode 8 Season 5: The Art of Being Gentle With Yourself

Description In this episode, “The Art of Being Gentle With Yourself,” we explore what it means to practice self-compassion in a world that constantly pushes perfection. Together, we’ll look at the definition of self-compassion, how it connects with gentleness, and why gentleness—as a fruit of the Spirit—is something Christians often overlook when it comes to themselves. We’ll talk about how gentleness can play a powerful role in healing trauma, especially since trauma can feel like the opposite of compassion and softness. I’ll share some personal examples of how I’ve learned to slow down, give myself grace, and be gentler in my own healing journey—physically, mentally, and spiritually. Finally, we’ll consider how practicing gentleness toward ourselves can help us extend true compassion and kindness to others.For breakdown of episode and sources, GO HERE:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sRCbHRW9kc84cTAxz1BnGttNcbx8TzEhEpU58Mb1B_4/edit?usp=sharingChristian Emotional Recovery ResourcesPodcast WebsiteAccess Episodes, Get Free Resources, and MoreFacebook GroupJoin Community, Get Support, and Get Weekly EncouragementYouTube ChannelSubscribe for Exclusive Material Not on PodcastChristian Emotional Recovery StoreGet meditations, infographics, journals, and other resources for your healing journeyTrauma SurvivorsCheck out Resources Page for Trauma SurvivorsEmail ListGet updates on episodes, platform, resources, and productsFree ResourceFree Visual A.C.O.R.N Resource to Heal Difficult EmotionsDonate Monthly Through PatreonHelp More Trauma Survivors Through This Ministry  ...
