Compassion Revolution

Mary revisits an earlier episode where we are encouraged to show up for ourselves as much as anyone else.

Directing compassion towards ourselves isn't easy and there are many obstacles. But this week we all need an extra dose. Enjoy!

It's a proven fact that practising this little meditation every day for 2 weeks will change your brain. Go on, you know you want to.

The answer to this question is 'Yes!' and this week Mary looks at the evidence.

Around about now everything speeds up and people with a cart load of groceries appear in the ten items or less aisle. This week we practice finding our calm.

Do you ever feel like you have so much empathy you could burst? Let's turn some of that empathy into compassion.

It seems that people are thinking a lot about mindfulness at the moment. But are we all talking about the same thing?

Mary reflects on self compassion how we might include ourselves in the frame a little more. We get so very good at leaving ourselves out in the cold.

Time flys when you’re a podcast! This week we celebrate our 30th Episode with a little dose of wisdom, Mary style.

What if we practised a new kind of radical self love? Let’s give that a try.

The joy of being alive! This week we come home to ourselves.

There's a lot said about resilience, most of it wrong. To go the distance we need to recharge not endure. Mary shares a few of her own life-hacks.

Loving Kindness Meditation is Mary's go-to meditation at airports and shopping centres. Find out how you can send love while you're doing the shopping.

What's it like to be you? Mary asks the next question: what's it like to be on the receiving end of you?

How do we manage Advantage Blindness, even when we are setting out to clear snow. Nothing is only as we experience it.

Everyday in so many ways we create these little temples to love. Mary keeps seeing them everywhere.

The first Compassion Revolution Conference was last week and Mary is still on cloud 9. In this podcast she listens again to the amazing closing ceremony. Have you heard it ?

This week on the podcast we think about the real purpose of friendship and how we can be a generous and reliable friend to ourselves and others.

Understanding our values is powerful stuff. This week Mary bans the merch and encourages us all to own our values.

This week on the podcast we discover that being grateful actually changes the molecular structure of our brains. Thanks for that!

Serendipity takes over and Mary revisits the idea that joy is the labor by which we make the life we want to live possible. It’s like chopping wood and carrying water.

As John Powell of the HAAS Institute says “Of all the forces shaping politics and power around the world, perhaps none are more important than our sense of who we are, and who we are becoming.” This week we look at Bridging and Breaking.

My friends us the term #realtruth to describe the things we need to say to people that sometimes feel really uncomfortable. Or the things we want to say about ourselves that take extra courage. This week it’s #realtalk

Do you ever feel disheartened? This week Mary remembers that change doesn’t happen like a shot out of a pistol. It happens in all these amazing incremental moments. People lay the ground work and often they don’t see the fruit of their work or they don’t recognise that their work was instrumental.

Mary got challenged about her positivity and that got her thinking about how we make choices.
