The Self Compassion Break

Self compassion break is one of the most popular practices from the mindful self compassion program that I developed with my colleague Chris Germer. So what you can do is put your hands on your heart or equatal your face in your hands or hold your own hand or give yourself a hug. It actually uses both the uses language of the type of thing you might say to a friend, and it also uses a touch. And please don't choose something that's really difficult or stressful because if so, you'll be overwhelmed and you won't be able to learn the practice.
