[This episode with Dr Kristin Neff is from a YouTube episode aired on 31 May 2024.

She defines THE THREE COMPONENTS OF SELF-COMPASSION: mindfulness, common humanity and self-kindness. She highlights THE SPACE BETWEEN SELF-ESTEEM AND SELF-COMPASSION and also distinguishes self-compassion from notions of self-pity. She offers an OVERVIEW OF THE MINDFUL SELF-COMPASSION PROGRAM (MSC), including adaptations and recent developments, and some TIPS: HOW TO PRACTICE SELF-COMPASSION. She offers hope of SELF-COMPASSION AS AN ANTIDOTE TO SHAME. She discusses how we might start OVERCOMING OBJECTIONS TO SELF-COMPASSION, the common fears, blocks and resistances to self-compassion, not least self-criticism, and WHY SELF-COMPASSION IS KEY TO MOTIVATION.LINKS:Dr Kristin Neff websitehttps://self-compassion.org/Centre for Mindful Self-Compassionhttps://centerformsc.org/The Space Between Self-Esteem and Self Compassion: Kristin Neff at TEDxCentennialParkWomen (2.9 million views!)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvtZBUSplr4Self-Compassion: The Proven Power of Being Kind to Yourselfhttps://www.amazon.com.au/Self-Compassion-Kristin-Neff/dp/1444738178/Fierce Self-Compassion: How Women Can Harness Kindness to Speak Up, Claim Their Power, and Thrivehttps://www.amazon.com.au/Fierce-Self-Compassion-Women-Stand-Claim/dp/0241448654/Teaching the Mindful Self-Compassion Program: A Guide for Professionalshttps://www.amazon.com.au/Teaching-Mindful-Self-Compassion-Program-Professionals/dp/1462538894/The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook: A Proven Way to Accept Yourself, Build Inner Strength, and Thrivehttps://www.amazon.com.au/Mindful-Self-Compassion-Workbook-Yourself-Strength/dp/1462526780/NEFF, K.
