Ann Manning: The Influence of Self-compassion on Mindful Parenting | Raising Parents #23

Parenting can be demanding, stressful, and filled with self-doubt, and self-compassion encourages parents to acknowledge and validate their own feelings and experiences without judgment. Applying self-compassion to mindful parenting can help support emotional regulation and create a nurturing environment for both the parent and the child. In this episode, be prepared for an informed, insightful, and engaging conversation that explores the transformative power of self-compassion in the context of mindful parenting. Learn about the various ways to foster a kinder, more supportive relationship with yourself as a parent, ultimately creating a nurturing atmosphere that benefits both you and your child. Parenting often results in parents beating themselves up, and Ann believes that bringing self-compassion into parenting is essential for achieving contentment and happiness in the process. She also shared the concept of self-compassion and the three main components that underlie all self-compassion practices. At the end of the session, Ann emphasized the importance of self-compassion and suggested that we find self-compassionate words to transform negative experiences into positive ones.
