What is self-compassion? How does it differ from self-esteem? In this episode of Into the Fold, Dr. Kristen Neff, professor of psychology at The University of Texas at Austin, lays out the core principles of self-compassion, explains why it's important, and debunks some preconceived notions about self-compassion that makes the idea a difficult sell for some people. As Neff explains, with just a little bit of practice our ability to extend kindness to ourselves can weather even the most ego-threatening situations.
