What happens if we ask our pain questions?

What occurs when we offer ourselves witness?

Teacher, coach and host of Best of Ourselves podcast, Marcia Hyatt joins me today to converse about something few of us do: hold our pain and learn from the discomfort and the questions we ask of it.

We cover topics I've enjoyed from her fantastic podcast and what they can mean for growth, increased compassion, and wholeness in our lives and toward others:

• Spiritual Hospitality with the kind of Listening (witness) that makes space for the other

• The steps to sitting with pain instead of numbing or "turning the channel"

• Noticing and subduing the Inner Critic

• Creating spaciousness when we need it most

• Habits and practices that keep us aware and improving

(and more...but you already knew that!)

The show notes are quite valuable this episode and contain all the authors and books and ways to the resources that Marcia mentions during our talk.

They are FREE to all patron supporters of the show. Access them here.. To find out when the sow notes are being released FREE to the public go here.
