Självmedkänsla uppstår ur hjärtat av mindfulness. Tillsammans kan mindfulness och självmedkänsla skapa ett tillstånd av att vara i en varm, samhörig medveten närvaro.

Kristin Neff och Christopher Germer är världsledande auktoriteter inom självmedkänsla. Det här är deras första gemensamma bok, som bygger på 8-veckorsprogrammet mindful self compassion som de har utvecklat. Som varma och kloka vägvisare går de steg för steg igenom övningar och meditationer som väcker förmågan att möta dig själv – och din omgivning – med medkänsla. Att bli medvetet närvarande är grunden för att kunna möta oss själva med medkänsla och vänlighet istället för självkritik.

Detta 8-veckorsprogram har i forskning visat sig ge en långvarig ökning av självmedkänsla och välmående, samtidigt som det minskar ångest och depression.

Boken är fackgranskad och har ett svenskt förord av Camilla Sköld, med.dr samt utbildare och lärare i mindful self-compassion.

Self-Compassion: Stop Beating Yourself Up and Leave Insecurity Behind offers expert advice on how to limit self-criticism and offset its negative effects, enabling you to achieve your highest potential and a more contented, fulfilled life.

More and more, psychologists are turning away from an emphasis on self-esteem and moving toward self-compassion in the treatment of their patients—and Dr. Neff’s extraordinary book offers exercises and action plans for dealing with every emotionally debilitating struggle, be it parenting, weight loss, or any of the numerous trials of everyday living.  

Germer och Neff går igenom teorin och forskningen kring programmet och berättar framförallt hur det kan läras ut till deltagarna. Många exempel och dialoger illustrerar innehållet i de åtta sessionerna samt även hur man skapar ett gott gruppklimat och hanterar vanliga hinder. Boken tar också upp hur man kan integrera självmedkänsla i psykoterapi.

Camilla Sköld, med.dr och lärare i MSC, har fackgranskat boken och du hittar guidade övningar med henne under produktbilden.

THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION WITH A NEW FOREWORD FROM KRISTIN NEFF''Kristin Neff offers practical, wise guidance on the path of emotional healing and deep inner transformation.'' Tara Brach, PhD, author of Radical AcceptanceKristin Neff PhD, is a professor in educational psychology, and the world''s expert on self-compassion. A pioneer who established self-compassion as a field of study, Kristin offers a powerful solution for combating negativity and insecurity - the symptoms of living in a high-pressure world.Through tried and tested exercises and audio downloads, readers learn the 3 core components that will help to heal destructive emotional patterns so that you can become healthier, happier, and replace negative and destructive measures of self-worth and success with a kinder and non-judgemental approach.Self-Compassion recognises that we all have weaknesses and limitations, but in accepting this we can discover new ways to achieve improved self-confidence, contentment and reach our highest potential. Simply, easily and compassionately. Kristin Neff''s expert and practical advice offers a completely new set of personal development tools that will benefit everyone.''A portable friend to all readers ... who need to learn that the Golden Rule works only if it''s reversible: We must learn to treat ourselves as well as we wish to treat others.'' Gloria Steinem''A beautiful book that helps us all see the way to cure the world - one person at a time - starting with yourself. Read it and start the journey.'' Rosie O''Donnell

The bestselling author of Self-Compassion follows up her groundbreaking book with new ideas that expand our notion of self-kindness and its capacity to transform our lives, showing women how to balance tender self-acceptance with fierce action to claim their power and change the world.

Kristin Neff changed how we talk about self-care with her enormously popular first book, Self-Compassion. Now, ten years and many studies later, she expands her body of work to explore a brand-new take on self-compassion. Although kindness and self-acceptance allow us to be with ourselves as we are, in all our glorious imperfection, the desire to alleviate suffering at the heart of this mindset isn't always gentle, sometimes it's fierce. We must also act courageously in order to protect ourselves from harm and injustice, say no to others so we can meet our own needs, and motivate necessary change in ourselves and society. Gender roles demand that women be soft and nurturing, not angry or powerful. But like yin and yang, the energies of fierce and tender self-compassion must be balanced for wholeness and wellbeing. 

Drawing on a wealth of research, her personal life story and empirically supported practices, Neff demonstrates how women can use fierce and tender self-compassion to succeed in the workplace, engage in caregiving without burning out, be authentic in relationships, and end the silence around sexual harassment and abuse. Most women intuitively recognize fierceness as part of their true nature, but have been discouraged from developing it. Women must reclaim their power in order to create a healthier society and find lasting happiness. This wise, caring, and enlightening book, now in paperback, shows women how to reclaim balance within themselves, so they can help restore balance in the world.

Kristin Neff, Ph.D., says that it’s time to “stop beating yourself up and leave insecurity behind.” Self-Compassion: Stop Beating Yourself Up and Leave Insecurity Behind offers expert advice on how to limit self-criticism and offset its negative effects, enabling you to achieve your highest potential and a more contented, fulfilled life.

More and more, psychologists are turning away from an emphasis on self-esteem and moving toward self-compassion in the treatment of their patients—and Dr. Neff’s extraordinary book offers exercises and action plans for dealing with every emotionally debilitating struggle, be it parenting, weight loss, or any of the numerous trials of everyday living.

This handbook examines contemporary issues in self-compassion science and practice. It describes advances in the conceptualization and measurement of self-compassion as well as current evidence from cross-sectional and experimental research. The volume addresses the foundational issues of self-compassion, including its relationship to self-esteem and mindfulness. In addition, it considers the developmental origins of self-compassion and its relevance across the life course, including among adolescents and older adults. The handbook explores the role of self-compassion in promoting well-being and resilience and addresses new frontiers in self-compassion research, such as the neural underpinnings and psychophysiology of compassionate self-regulation

The Handbook of Self Compassion is a must-have resource for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as clinicians, therapists, and other practitioners in psychology, complementary and alternative medicine, and social work as well as all interrelated research disciplines and clinical practices.
