As wellness professionals, we give so much of ourselves to others—holding space, offering care, and tending to others' needs. But in the process, we can forget to care for the one who gives. This guided meditation offers a much-needed pause to reconnect with your own inner well-being through the lens of mindful self-compassion. In this episode of the Mindfulness Exercises Podcast, you'll be gently guided through a calming self-compassion meditation designed especially for therapists, coaches, healthcare providers, mindfulness teachers, and helping professionals. Through body awareness, emotional presence, loving-kindness, and mindful breathing, this practice invites you to release tension, set compassionate boundaries, and reconnect with your inner strength and humanity. What You'll Experience in This Meditation: ✔ A gentle body scan to ground your awareness and soften tension ✔ Mindful acknowledgment of difficult emotions with kindness and care ✔ Loving-kindness phrases to foster inner support and compassion ✔ Breathwork to release judgment, guilt, and the pressure to be perfect ✔ Reflections on professional boundaries to support sustainable service ✔ A gratitude practice to honor your efforts and impact Whether you're navigating emotional labor, compassion fatigue, or simply feeling stretched thin, this meditation reminds you that your well-being matters just as much as those you serve.

Sandra L. Brown, M.A., is the founder of The Institute for Relational Harm Reduction & Public Pathology Education. A former psychotherapist in the field of psychopathology, Sandra currently is an accomplished community educator on the intersections of mental illness, personality disorders, violence, and recidivism. Sandra is recognized for her pioneering work in women's issues related to relational harm from dangerous and pathological partners.

Her books include How to Spot a Dangerous Man Before You Get Involved, the award-winning Women Who Love Psychopaths: Inside the Relationships of Inevitable Harm With Psychopaths, Sociopaths & Narcissists, as well as the clinically relevant Counseling Victims of Violence: A Handbook for Helping Professionals. Sandra and Sara talk about trauma, survival, and the personality profile of the “attackers”. Sandra does not believe that the origin of sociopathic and psychopathic behavior stems from childhood. She does see a line of lack of or low empathy in the perpetrators. They also talk about how it is not always easy to stay ahead of a psychopath's mind. As Sandra says “They are sicker than we are smart”. This is an episode that shines light on the survivor and what is really needed for recovery, but also about the research of what makes someone thrive in hurting and fooling others.

Episode 98. Today's episode is directly from an amazing community member question. Her question was: I would love to know ways that I, as a dietitian, can support my clients and even ways to help nudge them toward working with a therapist if they aren't already. Are there simple ways to help explain the importance of therapy, mindset, stress on weight loss goals? Any books, trainings, other resources you could share would be wonderful! Have you ever had a question like this? If you are a dietitian or other helping professional, my guess is you have. If you've ever had a question like this (or a similar one, like how do I get my therapy client to go see a dietitian, or how do I get my partner to go to therapy, etc), you'll love this episode!​ Getting someone to change or do anything is a challenge of course. Instead of convincing or coercing, we are going to talk about ways to get curious and help them do the same. What to Expect in this Interview In this interview, we cover: 6:40: If you are a dietitian, health coach, or other helping professional and working with someone you think would really benefit from therapy, what can you say to help this person see the value too 11:12: What if someone says "that's a good idea, I should" and then continues to not take steps towards therapy? 13:00: How can you encourage them to seek therapy without making them feel like their issues are "too much" or make them feel shame? 21:53: How can you tell if dietitian or health coaching services may not be enough? 24:58: My favorite research study, The Milkshake Study, that demonstrates the role of mindset on our biology so perfectly Some therapy resources for people who need some logistical help finding a therapist And much more! "I know I shouldn't focus on weight loss, but..." (Polarized Parts Alert!) Are you feeling unsure how to guide a client who wants to improve their relationship with food, but also wants to lose weight? We offer this super cool transformational exercise that can help your clients work to understand their polarized parts, build self-trust and listen to their intuition! This free PDF gives step-by-step instructions for doing one of my all-time favorite exercises (based on Internal Family Systems theory) to explore polarized parts. It will help clients get to know the parts of themselves without judgment, understand their intention, and create empowerment and harmony in their body. This is hands-down one of the best ways I've found to help support client autonomy and build self-trust at the same time. I can't wait to share it with you!

Laura Reagan is an Integrative Trauma Therapist, founder of the Trauma Therapist Network, and host of the Therapy Chat podcast. Laura is dedicated to helping therapists become more skilled in trauma and attachment work by exploring their own inner worlds. Her current focus is similar to the direction of the NARM Training Institute: building a supportive therapeutic community and combating the isolation of trauma work. Along her personal journey and through clinical work with clients who experienced childhood abuse, Laura has learned that trauma shows up differently and often in ways that may not traditionally be considered trauma. She highlights that a therapist's blind spots typically point to their own pain spots. If left unaddressed, it could lead to missed opportunities for healing.  About: Laura Reagan, LCSW-C, is an Integrative Trauma Therapist, coach, and consultant who hosts the Therapy Chat Podcast.

Chris generously agreed to join the Trauma Therapist Network community to share some experiential holistic self-care practices last month, and our members loved what she shared with us.    Today you'll hear Chris speak about incorporating holistic self-care practices into your life, and how these methods can help us get back into our bodies when we are feeling disconnected from ourselves.   Chris McDonald is a Holistic Licensed Therapist, 200 hour registered yoga teacher and holistic provider in Garner, NC.

Welcome back to Therapy Chat! Continuing the theme of tending to our own needs, today's topic is one that's important to therapy professionals and to first responders, too. To anyone who works with people who are suffering, Vicarious Trauma is important.   Host Laura Reagan, LCSW-C revisits a past episode in which she speaks about Secondary Traumatic Stress and Vicarious Trauma after attending a workshop on this topic by Laura Van Dernoot Lipsky, the author of Trauma Stewardship. This week is Part 1 and next week, in part 2, we will hear from Laura van Dernoot Lipsky herself! Here's what you'll hear in this episode: The terms Vicarious Trauma and Secondary Traumatic Stress are interchangeable. Therapists bear witness to the traumatic stories of clients and are affected by them. The nature of therapy work requires empathy; it's honorable, brave, and important work intended to make the world a better place. There are small ways to lessen the impact of trauma, by mindfully checking in with yourself and using positive coping methods. As a therapist, how much are you “numbing?” We discuss examples. Laura recommends spending 12-60 minutes each day, for six days a week, working out to the degree of breaking a sweat. We owe it to the people we help to take care of our Vicarious Trauma, and regular exercise is one way to do that. Isolation is common in trauma work, because we feel like “nobody understands.” The American Counseling Association lists several signs of Vicarious Trauma, including: Having difficulty talking about feelings Feeling diminished joy Feeling trapped by work Limited range of emotions Exaggerated startle reflex Hopelessness Trouble sleeping Exhaustion Conflict with other staff Trouble with intimacy Feeling withdrawn and isolated Impatience, apathy A change in worldview What can you do to make a difference? Practice mindfulness Exercise (12-60 min. several days each week) Cultivate connection with yourself and others Enrich your life by doing things you love, apart from work Make meaning Resources: ACA Fact Sheet on Vicarious Trauma Trauma Stewardship by Laura van Dernoot Lipsky Trauma Stewardship Institute Laura van Dernoot Lipsky's newest book, The Age of Overwhelm Thank you to TherapyNotes for sponsoring this week's episode!

Welcome back to Therapy Chat! This week, host Laura Reagan, LCSW-C revisits an episode from 2016 on a very important subject - self care for helping professionals! Ashley Davis Bush, LICSW is a psychotherapist in private practice in southern New Hampshire with over 30 years' experience.  Ashley has written several self-help books, including Transcending Loss and Simple Self-Care for Therapists. She is a regular contributor to the Huffington Post and has some great tips to share with us today about improving our relationships to self-care. Join us! What you'll hear in this episode: Ashley loves her work and counts it a privilege to be part of peoples' lives. Her private practice is in her home, and it's “a fun job, watching life unfold in front of you.” Even the simple choice of working from home can be a self-care choice. Ashley's work focuses on grief, couples, and anxiety, but self-care is a common thread that is woven into her work with all clients. Ashley says that much of her practice patterns itself after her books. Her most recent book introduces the idea of “micro self-care.” “Macro self-care”practices are the big things that we normally think of regarding self-care, but micro practices are short, simple things that can be done in 1-2 minutes. Ashley focuses on self-care to avoid burnout, which she categorizes as “little b” and “BIG B” types of burnout. “little b” burnout is when you are exhausted at the end of the day or week. You may need a good night's rest or a few days off to regenerate and recover. “BIG B” burnout is when you need to leave the field because you can't take it anymore. Ashley addresses “vicarious trauma,” in that ALL therapists do some sort of trauma work. Personal and professional experience can cloud the lens with which we see the world, but life's pains are a constant trauma. Ashley explains self-care vs. self-violence: when you don't take care of yourself, then you're doing harm (violence) to yourself. Mindfulness leads to grounding, bringing us into this moment right now. Ashley shares her Tibetan bell practice to help bring clients into mindfulness. She recommends using micro self-care practices at the beginning, middle, and end of your day. Ashley's book lists 40-50 suggestions as to how to scale down macro self-care practices into small micro practices. Making the transformation from macro to micro self-care practices requires thinking creatively, but shouldn't be overwhelming. Neuroplasticity is the science that show the brain can change in response to repetitive behaviors. You can rewire your brain to be more peaceful! When your brain is rewired, then your default setting comes to a place of gratitude and feeling good. Ashley's three takeaways: Have a basic plan for 3 micro self-care practices each day. Sleep 8-9 hours each night so you aren't tired during the day. Prioritize self-care, and you'll soon realize that you can't live without it! Be aware of the seasons of life, but regardless of the season, you can fit in micro self-care every da   Find Ashley at www.ashleydavisbush.com.
