Self Compassion

Blurb:
In Self-Compassion, Dr. Kristin Neff challenges the myth that being hard on yourself leads to success. Instead, she presents self-compassion as a transformative practice that fosters emotional resilience, reduces anxiety, and promotes overall well-being. Drawing from scientific research and her own experiences, Neff introduces three core components: self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness. Through practical exercises and insights, she guides readers toward treating themselves with the same kindness they would offer a friend in times of struggle.
