Compassion Begins Within

About this episode

This week is all about self-acceptance! Today, Rosie shares her personal story of cultivating self-compassion. 

Here are the self-compassion questions mentioned in the episode… 

Have you ever found yourself being overly self-critical or judgmental towards yourself? How did it affect your well-being and relationships? 

Can you recall a time when you offered compassion and support to a loved one who was going through a challenging situation? How would it feel to extend that same level of understanding and kindness to yourself, in moments of difficulty or failure? 

What self-care practices or activities bring you joy and help you reconnect with yourself? How can you prioritize these moments of self-care and make self-compassion a consistent part of your daily life? 
 

Rosie Acosta has studied yoga and mindfulness for more than 20 years and taught for over a decade. She hosts a weekly conversational wellness podcast called, Radically Loved. A first-gen Mexican-American, Rosie’s mission is to help others overcome adversity and experience radical love. She’s been featured in Yoga Journal, Well + Good, Forbes and The New York Post.
