There’s no denying that life can be difficult. Simply being human means experiencing emotional and physical pain. None of us escapes dealing with pain, failure, and setbacks, but learning how to practice mindful self-compassion can be life-changing. It comes from the understanding that every human being suffers, that we all want to be happy, and that this commonality connects us with everyone else.

Over the last decade, there has been an international explosion of research on mindfulness. Contemplative practices are being integrated with science and psychology. Researchers are sharing information on the power of inner-directed compassion and its beneficial effects on mental well-being, growth, motivation, relationships, and physical health.

Join expert Laurie Cameron to discover tools - including meditations, exercises, journaling, and in-the-moment practices - that will help you evoke mindfulness and empathy in your everyday life in a way that it becomes your natural response - your new set of habits. As you adopt these practices, you’ll start to see a shift in how you work with stressful life events, as well as how you connect with the shared human experience of loss, challenge, and disappointment.

I am a engineering student and as she said my mind is always wanting to stay in action. I started this book at a 2.60x pace while working on something else and it was boring. Then, I started listening at 1.60x when doing a handstand practice in the morning and the book started to make sense. I feel like I have someone to blame when I am scared (she guides you how to identify the judgmental you) and overall the book made me feel better about loving myself.

Be ready, be calmed and then listen.

The content is good, you will probably feel like you’ve heard something of this before. The last minutes can be overwhelming if you don’t really like meditating, you can skip it though.

It has tools you that can work in your life if you apply them.

It’s okay. Good tools.

Great look at mindfulness meditation and compassion, along with the science to understand why these thing are so powerful. I found this book very useful, as someone who's been researching/practicing mindfulness meditation for the past 6+ months. A lot of good and useful information for such a short listen, including multiple guided meditations.

Great book on mindfulness meditation & compassion.

Her description of mindfulness is accurate. Using her methods will help halt the left brain rant. Do it as often as brushing your teeth or looking in the mirror. U can love what is unconscious. That is self love.

I believe I chose this as one of the free books of the month and I took a chance on it. The book was so awesome. I loved the content, her speaking voice, the ideas she provided for me -they might be common for others but they were tangible techniques that I can use immediately to help reduce my stress and to be kinder to myself. I thoroughly enjoyed that it was broken up into classes which made me feel like I was learning something in bite size pieces. I plan to listen to the book /attend class for the next couple of weeks with you book, take notes and practice with the suggestions. It was surprisingly helpful to me so far.

This book was surprisingly helpful!
