Making self-compassion less cringy & the science behind mindfulness with Dr Shauna Shapiro

from The Balance Theory · host Erika De Pellegrin

Today I am joined by Dr Shauna Shapiro - best-selling author, clinical psychologist and internationally recognized expert in mindfulness and self-compassion. There was no better topic to end our interviews this year other than mindfulness, intention setting and self compassion. Many of you like me may have found self-compassion really cringy or awkward, which is exactly why I wanted to get Dr Shauna on the show to take us through the practical impact of it (in the science we trust), to debunk many of the things I originally thought towards it. Get ready to hear some practical tips you can start applying today to boost not only self compassion, but your all round mindfulness which are going to be two essential tools to help you thrive in 2024! We also chat through perfectionism (you know I'm guilty of and working on this) and tips for us perfectionists in goal setting for the new year in a healthy way! She shares her traumatic and dark experiences that completely shaped her life and mindset, time in monasteries, scientific findings that completely blew me out of the water and lastly but so important, INTENTIONS and INTENTION SETTING!! This one is jam packed - don't miss it! Connect with Shauna: On Instagram On her website JOIN OUR FREE GROUP CHAT HERE 🎉 Until next time,  Stay Balanced  P.S. Need a fix in-between episodes?
