How often do you speak to yourself with kindness?
We tend to be much harder on ourselves than we ever would be on our loved ones, and we’re doing ourselves a disservice.
Did you know that self-compassion doesn’t only make you feel better, but it also helps you accomplish goals and break bad habits? Brittany Cano is here to teach us more about the benefits of radical self-care and how to implement it as a practice in our lives.
We’re talking about how to notice and interrupt negative thoughts, listen to your body, stop comparing yourself to others, and start supporting your needs.
Ever since Brittany was a young girl, she’s loved creating experiences that inspire joy and creativity. Brittany Cano is the founder of Holistic Nurse Coaches, a nurse-led holistic wellness company. She has a true passion for guiding others to prioritize their well-being so that they can fulfill their life’s purpose with peace and passion. Through lifestyle medicine, movement, and mindfulness, she will help you heal and elevate your mind, body, and spirit.
Topics We Cover in This Episode:
- Recognizing when you are speaking negatively to yourself
- What your physical body can tell you about your mental state
- The importance of slowing down
- Focusing on doing what’s right for you instead of comparing yourself to others
- How to honor, respect, and support yourself
- How to start practicing radical self-care and compassion
- Asking yourself what you need right now
As you’ll hear in this episode, there are so many benefits to radical self-care and compassion that get overlooked. You deserve the same level of compassion from yourself that you would extend to a friend or any other loved one. Your needs are unique to you and they are just as valid as anyone else’s. I hope this episode will encourage you to support yourself in those needs and experience the positive impact of self-compassion.
