Hi, I’m Gina! I’m a therapist, avid learner and educator. I’ve spent time in many settings, ranging from mental hospitals to jails and schools, immersing myself in situations that require both survival and compassion. This episode of the Self-Compassion series will be on Self-Compassion and Performance! How can we practice Self-Compassion amidst demands on performance? And what metrics can we use to determine progress?
For the intense among us, being Self-Compassionate can be a struggle. How can we balance high needs for growth and improvement while also remaining kind and forgiving to our self? In the last episode of this series we will look at studies on willpower and soft skills/metaskills as a frame for self-understanding. We will review the paths we’ve walked from nature to the interpersonal to play and forgiveness as we come to make sense of Self-Compassion practices in a competitive and demanding world.
