DESPRE AUDIOBOOK. Cele mai multe dintre noi recunosc intuitiv ferocitatea ca făcând parte din adevărata lor natură, dar au fost descurajate multă vreme să și-o dezvolte.

Denn wenn wir scheitern oder unseren eigenen Ansprüchen nicht gerecht werden, kehrt sich Selbstbewusstsein rasch um in Selbstkritik. Und wir können uns anstrengen, wie wir wollen, es wird immer jemanden geben, der noch intelligenter, erfolgreicher oder attraktiver ist als wir. Was wirklich stärkt, ist Selbstmitgefühl. Kristin Neff erforscht seit vielen Jahren die Fähigkeit, sich selbst freundschaftlich und nachsichtig zu behandeln.

Când vine vorba să facem față emoțiilor negative sau nedorite, compasiunea de sine este un atu din mai multe puncte de vedere.

Astfel cultivată, ea devine o formă remarcabilă a inteligenței emoționale. Cum se dezvoltă? Prin antrenamentul minții, deprinzându-ne să ne raportăm la experiențele comune tuturor oamenilor și arătându-ne bunătate nouă înșine.
