Self-Compassion
I was very fortunate this week in attending a Webinar conducted by Kirsten Peterson a sport and performance psychologist who discussed self-compassion. Kirsten better known as KP referred to Dr Kristin Neff’s work in self-compassion skills in daily life.
What is Self-Compassion? We find it easy to sit a comfort our family, friends, work mates and others. But when it comes to ourselves, we easy criticise ourselves and believe we don’t need/deserve the same understanding we show to others. Self-Compassion is just that. Being kind to ourselves.
We all make mistakes but instead of being hard on ourselves maybe we should be gentle. Yes we need to acknowledge our mistakes and make amends if required but we should forgive ourselves. Yes definitely, we need to learn from our mistakes and become better people though it.
If we can practice Self-Compassion, I believe is can only but help us with our mental health.

Very few web-sites that take place to be detailed beneath, from our point of view are undoubtedly very well really worth checking out. Katrinka Cleve Reidar
