What is the difference between self-pity, shame, and self-compassion? What is the difference between self-compassion and self-indulgence?
It is a basic human condition to feel sorry for ourselves occasionally. We have all been there. I don't know about you,  but I have had many a good cry feeling sorry for myself.

But  It is the action you take after that that really matters. This episode will discuss this and the steps to escape the self-pity spiral. 
We discuss why we fall into self-pity, the causes of shame, and how to use self-compassion to break the cycle.

You will learn two types of self-compassion, how they are useful, and 10 valuable tips to change your relationship to shame and self-pity.

Change your self-talk
