Description
Hi and welcome to SelfKind with me, Erica Webb (formerly The Movement and Mindfulness Podcast). This is a podcast about what it means to be, live and move through a lens of self-kindness. We’ll look at the way self-kindness can underpin our practices in movement, mindfulness, and mindset to support us to be and do the things we so desire in the world. It is my firm belief that self-kindness underpins any true self-acceptance, and one of the greatest pursuits we can ever engage in is that of being in a kind and honest relationship with ourselves. Mindful movement and developing a self-kind mindset are the tools I share and my guests do too - among much more. I’m thrilled you’re here. Let’s do this.

Are you familiar with the feeling of coming so far, only to land (usually metaphorically on your butt) back where you felt you started?
