What is Self-Compassion? Facebook messenger. Common humanity reminds people of their connection with other people—all of whom suffer at some point in their lives—and eases feelings of loneliness and isolation. Self-kindness is an active expression of caring toward the self that can help people clarify their intentions for how they want to treat themselves. Going through these steps in response to a stressful experiences can help people replace their self-critical voice with a more compassionate one, one that comforts and reassures rather than berating them for shortcomings.
That makes it easier to work through stress and reach a place of calm, acceptance, and happiness. Neff, K.

Kristin Neff, Ph. Struggling with that career failure, and a weight on my life. It was so good to put my hands on my heart and feel the warmth thru the peaceful songs I was listening in the tent in DC. Time stops, and I feel comfortable even if the feeling had been that I failed completely my career after 32 years in my university as administrative and without any opportunity of mobility and all the efforts I did to grow, studying a master's degree as adult, apply to the jobs at 55 years old, and just rejected.
I had the regret not to have changed before, have stayed there instead of quit. Even if it was not in my control I was telling me that it was my fault not have moved before, have stayed there in Belgium instead of growing, moving, or leave for expat job etc The feeling to touch my heart, name what was not in my control, see people in peace, open their hands, listening the voice singing, I could receive that patience, grit openness to myself to continue efforts for apply for other jobs, doing my projetcs, trying other doors and reach other hands.
Yes, I need self-compassion. Everyone does. May we all learn to forgive ourselves and others! I appreciate your help and resources, they really help when I feel bad about myself.
I love being able to listen to the audio. Reading the practice does not allow me to get into the moment in the same way. Thanks a lot..!! It's such a great and practical excercise..!! Realy helpfull and effective..!! Thanks again..!! On the 13th my son and his wife organized a birthday party for me.
I am grateful to them for the party. I am also grateful for the video that my grandchildren made; for the video lecture on space; for the cookies; for the voom visitors. I've practiced something like this before. It helps. It's nice to know that others practice the same way.
So simple it may not seem that profound, but I'm finding that practicing it fairly frequently has been effective for derailing inchoate feelings of bleakness for me. I'm confused if it's a guided practice I can play, or if I just print out the directions and do it myself? It looks like I should be able to play it. I liked the ability to exercise my mind through my feelings and also my body through relaxation.
I was able to take a different perspective in just a few minutes, all while on a break from my daily routines. The thoughtful guidance through this process is very helpful. Written Instructions PDF.
