Relational Neuroscience And Self-Compassion With Sarah Peyton

Episode 85: Sarah Peyton

What is relational neuroscience?

Why is self-compassion important in the anti racism space?

In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, anti-racism educator, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill interviews Sarah Peyton, a neuroscience educator whose book, The Antiracist Heart: A Self-Compassion and Activism Handbook, has recently been released. They discuss the importance of grounded care and acknowledgment of everyone's experience, combined with a fierce invitation to participate and change. Sarah details how privilege impacts people’s brains and the importance of self-compassion to help navigate shame and guilt that comes with anti-racism work.

Sarah Peyton, Certified Trainer of Nonviolent Communication and neuroscience educator, integrates brain science and the use of resonant language to awaken and sustain self-compassion, particularly in the face of such difficult issues like self-condemnation, self-disgust, and self-sabotage.

She teaches and lectures internationally and is the author of the Your Resonant Self-book series. She is also the co-author alongside Roxy Manning, Ph.D. of The Antiracist Heart: A Self-Compassion and Activism Handbook.
