Overview

Self-compassion is a helpful skill for emotional well-being. The Psychology Tools For Developing Self-Compassion audio collection provides a structured approach to developing self-compassion using principles from compassion focused therapy (CFT). CFT is an evidence-based psychological approach that integrates evolutionary, cognitive, and affective neuroscience to help individuals cultivate compassion and alleviate high levels of shame and self-criticism.

Being A Compassionate Person is designed for either independent use and integration into therapy. It provides a structured approach for clients to connect with their own compassionate self, encouraging the use of imagery to engage with the qualities of wisdom, strength, and caring-commitment – principles important to the development of self-compassion.
