About this listen

Kristin Neff, Ph.D., says that it’s time to “stop beating yourself up and leave insecurity behind.” Self-Compassion: Stop Beating Yourself Up and Leave Insecurity Behind offers expert advice on how to limit self-criticism and offset its negative effects, enabling you to achieve your highest potential and a more contented, fulfilled life.

More and more, psychologists are turning away from an emphasis on self-esteem and moving toward self-compassion in the treatment of their patients—and Dr. Neff’s extraordinary book offers exercises and action plans for dealing with every emotionally debilitating struggle, be it parenting, weight loss, or any of the numerous trials of everyday living.

Kristin Neff is amazing and I loved this book. It helped me tremendously and has made an impact on my life. I am now taking a course with one of her students. Highly recommended.

Amazing

This was such a beautiful book, one I’ll definitely reread, I feel more compassionate towards myself now. And this is coming from someone who is super hard on themselves and a recovering perfectionist. Anyhow, bless.

Beautiful, so worth the read.

Enjoyed listening to this one as an audiobook. The narrator was engaging. Good as a starter book to self-compassion, though didn't offer as many tangible solutions as I would have liked. Enjoyed that it referenced specific scenarios, as well as pulled from research from big names in the field.

Good intro to this field
