In the Premiere Episode of Season 3, hear the therapist and teacher of a healing practice called Mindful Self-Compassion, David Fredrickson, and learn some techniques that may help you offer yourself loving kindness, support or even comfort right when experiencing stress, discomfort or pain. 

Throughout the #HealMeToo #AtHome series, we'll explore tools that may help with the many forms of trauma that survivors and our communities are encountering in these times of hate violence and the Uprising in Defense of Black Lives, ongoing state violence against immigrants, and the losses, confinement, and economic stress of the COVID-19 pandemic.

David generously shared three guided meditations during the episode, which we’ll offer as Podcast Extras as well, so you can dial them up anytime! At the end of the interview, David also drew on his deep experience working with children who have experienced trauma, to offer ways we can support kids who may be suffering in this hard time.
