SelfKind: Conversations in self-care, kindness and compassion for highly sensitive people
Hi and welcome to SelfKind with me, Erica Webb. This is a podcast for Highly Sensitive People (HSP) who want to navigate the tricky bits of their sensitivity with more ease, while finding their sensitivity super powers. Here, we're all about being, living and moving through a lens of self compassion and kindness.
As your host, I meet you as a fellow HSP. I know what it's like to feel like things are too loud, too bright and just ... too much. In my work as a registered counsellor and mindful movement coach, I've supported myself and my clients to find ways to embrace their sensitivity that centre on self-compassion, nervous system regulation, self-awareness and, ultimately, self-love.
From mindfulness, mindful movement, joy seeking and a zillion and one practices in between, here you'll find space to be fully you - fully human - and the tools to navigate the tricky bits of having a highly sensitive nervous system.
I’m thrilled you’re here.

Ep 246: The thing that slow movement does best
In the first episode of SelfKind with Erica Webb (that's me!) for 2024, we're exploring the number one benefit of a slow and mindful movement practice.
Moving slowly is not lazy, ineffective or pointless. Far from it!
Tune in to hear:
- why enhancing your capacity for interoception is as a key advantage of slow movement
- how this skill leads to better responsiveness to your physical and emotional needs and can contribute to overall well-being, and fosters a sense of self-connection.
- why there's room for slow AND fast - and how each has its own benefits
- some common misconceptions about slow movement (and why they're misguided)
