Listed below are Kristin Neff’s exercises for Self Compassion. I encourage you to approach these with gentle curiosity and noticing. These exercises are not so much an assignment, but more of a contemplative labryinth to be worked through at a pace that is comfortable for you. Don’t forget to breathe, and take gentle notice of the shifts in your body and mind as you go.
