Self-Compassion, Shadow Sides & Simple Practices to Calm the Inner Critic

What if your harshest inner critic wasn’t the problem - but your relationship to it was? In this heartfelt conversation, Shelly Prosko shares how embracing self-compassion - and even your shadow side - can radically change your life.

Shelly is a physiotherapist, yoga therapist, educator, and compassionate care advocate with decades of experience supporting those navigating chronic pain, burnout, and self-doubt. As a leader in integrating yoga therapy into healthcare, and co-author of Yoga and Science in Pain Care, Shelly blends science, heart, and lived wisdom to help people reconnect to themselves.

In this powerful episode, Shelly and I unpack:

A simple 3-part framework to cultivate real self-compassion - even on the hard days.
Why ignoring your shadow side creates more suffering- and how loving all parts of yourself builds resilience.
Practical, embodied tools for calming anxiety, quieting the inner critic, and anchoring into your heart.
The surprising connection between self-compassion and becoming more present, empathetic, and courageous in life.

Whether you're a parent watching your teen struggle, a professional facing burnout, or simply someone ready to break free from harsh self-judgment - this episode offers a roadmap back to your truth.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about coming home to yourself—with all your messy, beautiful humanness. Shelly reminds us that when we meet ourselves with kindness, we naturally show up more grounded, connected, and compassionate—for ourselves and others.

Ready to deepen your self-compassion practice? Tune in now and discover simple, body-based tools to soothe your nervous system, shift your mindset, and reconnect with your heart.
