Living with chronic pain can be hard — and being hard on yourself can make it even harder.

In this episode of Live Yes! With Arthritis, mindfulness expert Dr. Christiane Wolf, MD, PhD, explores how self-compassion and mindfulness may help you manage stress, navigate difficult emotions and change the way you experience pain.

Tune in for a reminder that self-compassion isn’t self-pity — it’s giving yourself the same kindness and understanding you’d offer a friend. 🎧
