This week, we kick off a new series on relationships and the role of mindfulness in relationships. Kelly and Kristi begin the conversation with the most important relationship: the one we have with ourselves.
Self-connection means knowing and accepting who you truly are, including strengths and weaknesses. It's about being in tune with your emotions and thoughts without judgment. It means developing self-compassion, self-acceptance and allowing growth. Young or old, having a deep relationship with oneself is vital to a balanced and fulfilling life.
Tune in this week as Kelly & Kristi share their personal experiences with self-connection and offer suggestions including:
Encouraging children to be curious and try new things
Giving children the space to make choices, and mistakes
Being careful not to label, but rather focus on effort and the ability to be brave
How a yoga and meditation practice can support our self-connection at any age
The important of understanding and accepting ourselves to build strong , meaningful relationships with others.
This episode is part of a series. Be sure to tune in all month for thoughtful conversations about relationships.
