Unlock the Heart: Cultivating Inner-Self-Compassion After Trauma
Episode 202
Tuesday, 7 April, 2026
This episode explores why inner self-compassion is one of the hardest mindfulness practices—rooted in survival wiring, childhood adaptation, and trauma—and offers practical ways to begin softening the heart. Listen for a guided visualization exercise using four people (a loved one, a stranger, someone you dislike, and yourself), somatic cues to notice in the body, and reminders that other's emotional intelligence or lack thereof is not your fault nor your responsibility. The host also highlights the role of practice, integration, and supportive spaces in opening toward compassion.
