Sinossi
E se fossimo gentili con noi stessi come lo siamo con i nostri migliori amici quando attraversano un momento difficile? E se usassimo con noi le stesse parole di conforto che rivolgiamo loro quando sono tormentati dai sensi di colpa per aver commesso uno sbaglio? O quando sono eccessivamente critici con loro stessi? Queste le premesse ad un volume profondamente trasformativo in cui Kristin Neff, che per prima ha introdotto il concetto di self-compassion come campo di studio, ne presenta l'applicazione in tutte le aree della vita quotidiana: la relazione di coppia, la resilienza emotiva, la genitorialità, le relazioni con gli altri e perfino la perdita di peso, ma soprattutto la relazione con noi stessi di momento in momento. Avvalendosi dei risultati della ricerca empirica, del vissuto personale, di esercizi pratici e di un grande senso dell'umorismo, l'autrice spiega come uscire da emozioni distruttive per poter essere più felici e sani.

*Edit 3/27/2021: Five years later, and I want to acknowledge the importance of white people in psychology/mental health/etc. acknowledging the cultural appropriation of mindfulness from Eastern spiritual practices/Buddhism. Please see this article for more on that. Still appreciate the notion of sel Leggi tutto
I don’t really have a lot to say except that my therapist recommended me this book and it helped me quite a lot with understanding myself.
I'm a busy-buzzy kind of woman, and I found this a waffly and protracted read. I think it could have been ten percent the length that it was. This may be in part because I've realised that I am quite a self-accepting person. If instead you are highly self critical, you might find the detail given in Leggi tutto
I suppose a lot of those who read this will relate: my therapist lent me this book because I'm reflexively kinda rough on myself. By her own acknowledgment, she hadn't gotten all that far with her personal copy, but thought maybe I would find something in it interesting or helpful. Nope. I went into t Leggi tutto
A good book on a very important topic for me. Self-compassion is learning to love ourselves as we aspire to love those dear to us. It is not loving ourselves as being superior to others (i.e. believing I am better than you and special). I have periods when I hate myself, and most of the time I don't Leggi tutto
It's not often I don't finish a book, but I could not get past the first few chapters even with skimming. The tone of this book was sooooo annoying, i just couldn't take it anymore. The author apparently felt like she needed to dumb down her writing a little too much and all her examples were like o Leggi tutto
BIG EDIT: While I found the book very insightful and largely helpful, even if I didn't agree with everything in it, the stories that she tells about her autistic son are very problematic. I dismissed it at first because when I finished the book I still didn't know a lot about what it meant to be aut Leggi tutto
Nothing new but a wonderful intro book for someone who has no idea what you mean when you say "Be a little nicer to yourself" I also like her mantra: This is a moment of suffering. Suffering is part of life. May I be kind to myself in this moment. May I give myself the compassion I need. Kristen maintain Leggi tutto
