The Power of Self Love and Compassion to Heal Stress

Audrey Weidman is a woman on a mission.  When personal stress, in the form of negative critical thinking, incited a heart attack with no other signs of cardiovascular disease, she got the message.  It was time to not only teach others how to live in balance, she needed to learn how to share the same kindness and nurturing care to herself. And then her job got tough! Overcoming our critical inner voice can take a lot of presence and patience. Through the process Audrey became a student of positive psychology, Certified Stress Mastery Educator with the American Institute of Stress, and a +HeartMath facilitator.  Now her clients include first responders, including the Chicago Police Department, heart attack survivors, ambitious professionals and people who know it’s time to make a change. In this episode we discuss: The physical harm of negative self-talk The intersection of science and ancient practices The double benefit of asking for help The power of letting go of approval Helpful apps for wellbeing The Insights of positive psychologyAudrey has made her gift, “Seven Self-Love Strategies” available to our listeners!
