The Compassionate Mind (Compassion Focused Therapy)

Product Information

If you stop and take note of your thoughts and emotions, a lot of these fall into Threat or Drive, so the task is to build upon the soothing. We need to recognize, however, that when we accept ourselves as we are, and life as it is, we may find it easier to find peace and contentment within ourselves.

It talks about our under developed self soothing system in the west, which is exacerbated if you were not given a lot of this in your early years.I have always found myself being a bit dismissive of the idea of compassion, but Gilbert shows just how many problems in mental health are connected with this. Please also list any non-financial associations or interests (personal, professional, political, institutional, religious or other) that a reasonable reader would want to know about in relation to the submitted work. I found that it was so repeative, Gilbert made a point or gave a piece of information which are granted good points but then he would repeat that point in every conceivable way you could possibly imagine. I've given this three stars because I found the writing very loose: the book could easily lose a third of its length without sacrificing content, and more without sacrificing the pith. In addition Professor Gilbert is currently editor for the "Compassionate Approaches to Life Difficulties" book series.
