Our internal dialogue is shaped as we journey through life, but by the time we reach adulthood, that inner voice often becomes negatively biased as a survival mechanism. Can we change this internal narrative to focus more on self-compassion? Leading a life guided by self-compassion can bring about remarkable transformations, but it requires practice. In today's episode, we delve into the concept of self-compassion with our special guest, Melissa Dahl. Melissa specializes in women's mental health, particularly maternal mental health. She is trained in various therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, DBT, Mindful Self-Compassion, PCIT, and the Attachment framework. Melissa offers Mindful Self-Compassion courses and works with post-partum moms and families. Join us as we explore what self-compassion truly means, the importance of validating our own experiences and emotions, and the skill of nurturing a kind inner dialogue. Melissa sheds light on the brain's default negative bias and the practice of mindful self-compassion. We also connect self-compassion to the processes of grief and loss while unraveling the emotional workings of the human brain. Get your journals ready and take notes as you listen to this incredibly insightful episode with Melissa Dahl. Thank you for tuning in!Key Points from This Episode:•    What is self-compassion: treating yourself like you would treat someone else.•    The importance of validating your own experiences. •    Developing the skill of being kind with our internal dialogue.•    How our brains default to a negativity bias for survival.•    Mel talks about the practice of mindful self-compassion.•    A good first step to flipping the switch of our internal dialogue. •    The beautiful path of relearning how to know ourselves.•    Growing into a great version of yourself (one you love).•    Why self-acceptance doesn't mean we don't hold boundaries with ourselves or others.•    How to tie self-compassion to grief and loss: self-compassion works by identifying a feeling.•    Mental gymnastics: the emotional brain and how it impacts the creation of self-blame.•    Name it and feel it: moving toward a release. •    A real-life example; breaking down the situation and implementing self-compassion.•    How we can work on and activate our attachment. Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Mel Dahl on LinkedInMel Dahl EmailHeal Well with Mel PodcastMindful Healing & ConsultingHavenTellwell 

When breastfeeding goes wrong some women feel guilty that they have failed to do what should come naturally. But Professor Amy Brown from Swansea University says those with the most severe physical and emotional impact could be experiencing trauma, similar to the effects of a traumatic birth. We hear from Linzi Blakey who had problems with breastfeeding when she gave birth to her daughter and son and had to give up before she wanted to. A specialist therapist has helped her to realise that she did the best she could - despite a lack of the right kind of support when she was feeling vulnerable. Awkwardness can result when we do something embarrassing - and science writer Melissa Dahl set out to write a book on how to overcome those feelings of embarrassment. Cringeworthy: How To Make The Most Out of Uncomfortable Situations is the result of her discussions with scientists. She challenges herself to feats such as performing a stand-up routine, going to see a professional cuddler and reading out her teenage diaries to an audience at the Brooklyn show, Mortified. She now feels awkwardness is part of being human- and encourages us all to show more empathy to each other. Claudia's studio guest Catherine Loveday, Professor of Neuroscience at the University of Westminster shares her own cringeworthy stories plus news of a spat in the world of psychedelic drugs research and how hallucinations seem to be a lot more common than we thought. Producer: Paula McGrath Made in Partnership with The Open University

Her first book, Cringeworthy: A Theory of Awkwardness, is out now. What We Discuss with Melissa Dahl: Awkwardness does not have to make us feel alone -- in fact, the things that make us cringe can serve to remind us of how connected we all truly are. Our concept of ourselves is often constructed externally -- by how we think other people view us. How awkwardness can help us have tough conversations about race, politics, and gender. How we can stop stop reliving embarrassing memories. How to remap and reframe feelings of awkwardness or embarrassment and use them to our advantage. And much more...
