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.
The Spotlight Exercise uses a metaphorical illustration to help clients experience the dynamics of attention and awareness. This tool demonstrates how attention can be directed and redirected to different aspects of experience – much like moving a spotlight in a dark room. This understanding is foundational for developing mindfulness.
