Elizabeth talks with Dr. Patricia Vriesendorp about the ways in which challenges to self-compassion show up in day-to-day life, and how to make self-compassion a practice that could potentially benefit motivation, mental-health and well-being. The particularities of practicing self-compassion as a foreigner or migrant are discussed, as well as some ways that this uniquely vulnerable group can learn to be kinder to themselves. We will discuss this topic further in our upcoming webinar on 23 March, 30 March and 6 April. Check out c2's Facebook page for more information or to register.
