The Neuroscience of Self-Kindness: Unlocking Happiness in Midlife

In this empowering episode of “Midlife Crisis to a Centered Life Thriving” with Dr. Natalie, our compassionate host delves deep into the neurobiological aspects of why it can be so hard to be kind to ourselves and what we need to start doing differently to change this. Dr. Natalie reveals that the challenge to being kind to ourselves comes from our own neurobiology, especially during those moments when we feel we’re not measuring up. She uncovers the survival mode instincts that wire us to be self-critical and offers invaluable insights and practical tips on how to navigate and overcome this common struggle.

Tune in as Dr. Natalie educates her listeners on the profound importance of self-kindness. Learn how cultivating self-compassion can be a catalyst for meaningful change in your life and lead you on the path to genuine happiness. And while it can feel effortful to change from being a Debbie downer with ourselves to being our biggest fans, Dr. Natalie is here to spur us on and show us that we have the resources inside us we need to accomplish this.

Don’t miss this episode, designed to help you unlock the key to a centered and thriving midlife. Make yourself a cup of coffee or tea and learn how a simple act of kindness like this can be the difference in unlocking joy in our lives.
