Update: 2025-10-01
Description
What if compassion isn’t just soft or sentimental—but a skill that strengthens your nervous system and your boundaries? In this episode of Relish, Alyssia Sheikh explores the science and practice of compassion and self-compassion, drawing distinctions from empathy, sharing embodied practices, and unpacking Kristin Neff’s research on both tender and fierce self-compassion. You’ll walk away with tools you can use right away, from hands-on-heart to compassionate journaling, to meet yourself with kindness and resilience.
