Neff's book is a great introduction to the concept of self-compassion. As she notes, many people are hard on themselves, believing that they don't deserve compassion. But if you appreciate yourself, you'll be happier. Having an appreciation for yourself makes it easier to cope with tough situations.
In addition to examining the benefits of self-compassion, Neff also looks at how to engage in its practices. You'll learn about the practice of mindfulness, which requires paying attention to all of your experiences. This is important because we often attach constructs to our thoughts and feelings, creating a self-critical mindset. With mindfulness, we can break this cycle.
In her book, Neff discusses the importance of self-compassion for women. Women face a number of unfair challenges that result from cultural and evolutionary differences. Often, women feel they have no one to turn to, and so they internalize self-criticism and fear that they are not good enough. Using her own stories and a three-part framework, Neff explains how to develop both fierce and tender self-compassion. Unlike the tender version, which may be passive and ineffective, fierce compassion is more active and effective. However, without tender self-compassion, fierce compassion can become aggressive or even selfish.
The book also addresses gender issues, and Neff makes a convincing argument that women have been marginalized by culture and society. A lot of women are embarrassed to express their own fierce compassion. Even in leadership positions, they're sometimes discouraged from showing it. Taking responsibility for gender differences in our world is key to achieving real change.
One of the most valuable tools in this book is the Neff questionnaire, which helps you assess your level of self-compassion. After you've completed the test, you'll be able to use the information to improve your compassion.
