View yourself through a more sympathetic lens. This text covers the key principles of compassion focused therapy, which will guide you in caring for your wellbeing, becoming sensitive to your needs, recognising when you are distressed, and extending warmth and understanding to yourself. Initially developed to assist people experiencing high levels of shame and self-criticism, compassion focused therapy increases your awareness of the automatic reactions that you experience and motivates you to combat negative reactions with kindness and affection. Understand how to handle difficult emotions with greater ease and less stress. Transform difficult, potentially damaging relationships into positive aspects of your life. Encourage and motivate yourself to continually meet your goals, rather than criticise yourself for perceived failures.
