Hi All, Just thought that this would be useful to a lot of people on this site while in pain. Tips for growing more self compassion. While doing many workshops through pain clinic, one which is mindfulness which many of you know that I practice this anyway, there is another add on to mindfulness, which I found useful to,and that is self compassion, this is for both men and women. as men generally find this area a bit difficult but is a must if your to hard on yourself like I am. And learn to treat yourself like you would a friend that is hurting, this turns out to be quite simple to practice too. so if interested use the website. http://www.self-compassion. org
it the one by Kirsten Neff. or look at other resources on her website.
Jan this could be another useful tool to add to your site. Take care all and best wishes, Lee
