A few years ago, I created a blogpost compiling content and resources related to my work surrounding pelvic floor health and yoga HERE. The feedback I received from many of you, and continue to receive, was that you really appreciate these compilations because it makes it easier and more efficient to review and access the info as a ‘one stop shop’. So, I thought I’d take some time to do the same and compile the resources and content I’ve created and shared over the years surrounding the topic of compassion (includes self-compassion) and self-care.
Below you will find articles, podcast interviews, videos, webinars and courses that have an abundance of info on the nuances of self-care and compassion (includes self-compassion) along with practical application in everyday life and within the context of pain care. Within these resources are links to the work of those I’ve learned from and continue to learn from in these areas.
I will continue to add to this list as new content and info rolls in!
Enjoy!
