Description
Do you struggle with stress or negativity? Learn how self-compassion can help you find greater health, peace, emotional stability and joy. Cutting-edge research shows that self-compassion is not only a skill anyone can strengthen through practice but also one of the strongest predictors of mental health and wellness. The practices in this book have been specially formulated to target and fortify what neuroscientists call the "care circuit" of the brain.
Devoting thirty minutes a day for just fourteen days to these simple practices can have life-changing results. Tim Desmond's "Map to Self-Compassion" will engage your mind, heart and spirit. It will improve your ability to motivate yourself with kindness; regulate and defuse intense emotions, anxiety and depression; be resilient during life's challenges; let go of self-criticism and destructive behaviour; heal painful experiences; and be more present and compassionate with others. Experience the benefits firsthand! Features downloadable audio recordings for on-the-go practice.
