indful Self-Compassion (MSC) combines the skills of mindfulness and self-compassion to enhance our capacity for emotional wellbeing.
Mindfulness is the first step— psychologically bringing ones attention to events and actions happening in the present. Self-compassion comes next—bringing loving awareness to ourselves. Together, mindfulness and self-compassion comprise a state of warm, connected, presence during difficult moments in our lives.
Students from the University of Michigan explain Mindful Self-Compassion in correlation to physical activity. Failure is completely normal. Or not getting the score of time you trained toward. This is why MSC is important.
