104: Self-Forgiveness in a Changing Body
Friday, 20 March, 2026
One of the most complicated relationships we have is the relationship with our own body. When chronic illness, pain, injury, or unexpected physical changes show up, many of us quietly begin blaming ourselves or believing our bodies have betrayed us.In this episode, I share how the journey through nerve-damage and chronic pain forced me to confront the harsh inner voices that judged, blamed, and tried to “fix” what felt broken. What I discovered instead was a powerful shift: healing isn’t about fighting your body, it’s about learning to work in partnership with it.Through powerful reflections, compassionate reframes, and practical exercises, I introduce the idea of the “courtroom inside the mind,” the hidden grief that comes with physical change, and how self-forgiveness can transform the way we relate to our bodies.What You’ll LearnWhy chronic illness and physical changes often trigger self-blame and inner criticismThe three invisible griefs that often accompany chronic pain or illnessWhy self-blame creates the illusion of control, and how to release itA simple journaling practice that helps bring compassion into the conversation with your bodyResources:Your FREE Forgive Yourself resources: https://brendareisscoaching.com/podcast-resource-optin/Are you struggling with a situation or a person in your life?
