Parenting is hard, and we are hard on ourselves. “I yelled at the kids again—and I feel so ashamed.” “I hardly have time to shower, let alone exercise. No wonder I’m so out of shape.” “I’m not the parent I hoped I would be.”
Self-compassion can help. Join mindfulness expert and psychologist Dr. Susan M. Pollak to learn how to let go of self-judgment and treat yourself with the kindness you strive to offer to your kids. Learn simple yet powerful techniques that are easy to practice in daily life—cooking dinner, doing the dishes, driving, or soothing a fussy baby. Learn to respond to your own imperfections like a supportive friend, not a harsh critic. You will find yourself happier, more energized, and will discover new reserves of patience and appreciation for your kids.
