Dr. Shauna Shapiro on Cultivating Mindfulness and Self-Compassion

When we shame ourselves, the centers of the brain that have to do with learning shut down. And yet, for many of us, our thoughts don't strengthen or empower us.
Ever wondered how to bring more kindness and clarity into your daily life? Dr. Shauna Shapiro, a clinical psychologist and mindfulness expert, sits down with Eric Zimmer on 'The One You Feed' to share practical ways to nurture mindfulness and self-compassion. Dr. Shapiro, who has authored several acclaimed books and over 150 journal articles, breaks down the essentials of mindfulness: intention, attention, and attitude. She emphasizes the power of setting intentions and paying attention with a positive mindset.
One of the biggest hurdles to mindfulness, she notes, is our tendency to forget and focus on the negative. To counter this, Dr. Shapiro suggests a simple yet powerful practice: start your day by saying 'Good morning, I love you' to yourself. This small act can set a compassionate tone for the rest of your day. Tune in to learn how these daily practices can help rewire your brain for greater calm, clarity, and joy.
