Practice of Self-Compassion

Jeffrey Fracher gave this dharma talk on Jun 27, 2017 at the Insight Meditation Community of Charlottesville. While the Buddha taught extensively about compassion as an important part of practice, there is little mention in the Pali Canon about self-compassion. We will address why so many of us struggle with feelings of self-loathing. We will explore the topic of compassion toward ourselves and examine the specific ways we can incorporate a practice of self-compassion into our daily practice.
