Writing Yourself a Love Letter for Self-Compassion

One practical practice suggested in the book is to write yourself a love letter, aiming to list five things you like about yourself but starting with even one is good. If struggling, pretend to be a caring friend or a supportive figure from the past. Research indicates that writing a compassionate letter to oneself for seven continuous days results in long-lasting improvements in happiness and subjective well-being, even after three months.
