About this listen

Kristin Neff, PhD is a professor in human development whose 10 years of research forms the basis of her timely and highly listenable book. Self Compassion offers a powerful solution for combating the current malaise of depression, anxiety and self criticism that comes with living in a pressured and competitive culture.

Through tried and tested exercises, listeners learn the three core components that will help replace negative and destructive measures of self worth and success with a kinder and nonjudgmental approach in order to bring about profound life change and deeper happiness.

Self Compassion recognises that we all have weaknesses and limitations, but in accepting this we can discover new ways to achieve improved self confidence and contentment and reach our highest potential. Simply, easily and compassionately.

Kristin Neff's expert and practical advice offers a completely new set of personal development tools that will benefit everyone.

This challenged some of my beliefs and practice. Supporting self appreciation and compassion - supports our wider community way of being too.

I enjoyed the book incredibly as a practical guide full of exercises to self-compassion. The frameworks were helpful and there are many sections of the book I will likely return to.

I recommend reading it. Her recommendations are good and the stories are inspiring. Especially liked her own insights about her autistic son.

Really good

I loved this book and the excercies in it. I decided to listen 2 times. 1 for just absorbing the the information, the other more of a study and making the excercies. I would definitely listen again when needed. She has a soothing voice, however my ADHD brain had to listen on 1,25 speed. Otherwise nothing bad.

Highly recommend!
