In this episode, Alex and Lesley Huff sat down for a second, in-depth conversation exploring a range of themes. They discuss how importance it is to paying attention to how we use the tools of mindfulness and compassion so that we can be sure to use them in supportive and healing ways rather than to manipulate our experience or express self-aggression. They also chatted about being with stress during hard times, stopping habits of avoidance, and reclaiming our agency and power.

Lesley Huff, PsyD, is a licensed psychologist and Certified Mindful Self-Compassion Teacher. She started the Change Through Compassion Program, and has practiced mindfulness personally for many years.
