Is Self-Compassion Acceptance?

Self-compassion has several parts to it. It is acceptance. There's beautiful trainings at Chris Gerber at Harvard and Kristin Neff have a whole, whole beautiful training you can find online on mindful self-compassion. You start to say, Oh, this isn't about me. This is just about the fact that we all go through stuff. And then you bring in the cultivation of compassion for everybody who's lost in self judgment. In this process, it starts to shift the interior, or the charge to shift the way you hold yourself. A kind of confidence grows that's different than sort of brash confidence.
