This week, Shelly Tygielski offers a guided meditation to help you acknowledge what is causing you pain or stress, and hold it with more self-compassion and connection. Shelly is a self-care activist, trauma-informed mindfulness teacher, and the author of the new book Sit Down to Rise Up: How Radical Self-Care Can Change the World. She invites you to open your heart to community, forgiveness, and gratitude.
