About this listen

There’s no denying that life can be difficult. Simply being human means experiencing emotional and physical pain. None of us escapes dealing with pain, failure, and setbacks, but learning how to practice mindful self-compassion can be life-changing. It comes from the understanding that every human being suffers, that we all want to be happy, and that this commonality connects us with everyone else.

Over the last decade, there has been an international explosion of research on mindfulness. Contemplative practices are being integrated with science and psychology. Researchers are sharing information on the power of inner-directed compassion and its beneficial effects on mental well-being, growth, motivation, relationships, and physical health.

Join expert Laurie Cameron to discover tools - including meditations, exercises, journaling, and in-the-moment practices - that will help you evoke mindfulness and empathy in your everyday life in a way that it becomes your natural response - your new set of habits. As you adopt these practices, you’ll start to see a shift in how you work with stressful life events, as well as how you connect with the shared human experience of loss, challenge, and disappointment.

Calm, succinct exposition of self-compassion

Though coming to self-compassion through other sources, this book successfully communicated the rationale for self-acceptance and self-compassion without wallowing in the scene-setting of uptight urban existence. As a result, I could mindfully enjoy the delivery, which is a gentle introduction to (for me) a better way of living.

Not a fan

It was just too cheesy for me. I wish this type of content could be communicated differently for once
