Discover how self-compassion and your brain’s natural chemistry work together to support your well-being. In this episode, we’re exploring the DOSE chemicals—Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, and Endorphins—through the lens of self-compassion, uncovering how they enhance motivation, connection, resilience, and stress relief. You’ll hear about simple, science-backed ways to activate these feel-good chemicals and bring more kindness, warmth, and encouragement into your daily life.
