Self-compassion helps us let go of identification with the belief that we’re not good enough. With its warm support, we learn to untangle from our negative thoughts and emotions and embrace our inherent wholeness.
Our unconscious conditioning – influenced by our family, genetics, and culture – often tells us we’re inadequate and need to be different to be happy. Compassion helps us remember who we truly are versus who we’ve been conditioned to be. It transforms our contracted and limited view of ourselves, opening to a larger, more connected and powerful sense of loving presence.
Research shows that self-compassion is strongly linked to psychological and physical health, but our conditioning works against being kind to ourselves. In this program, researcher Kristin Neff teams up with meditation teacher Caverly Morgan to explore self-compassion from a scientific and contemplative lens, so that we can respond to difficult moments with greater warmth and perspective.
