Becoming our own safe haven: With Dr Stan Steindl

It's common for us to be harder on ourselves than we would ever be on others. Our tone, our words and the kindness we show when someone else makes a mistake can sound very different to our self-talk when we mess up. Learning to be more compassionate towards ourselves and to being more open to receiving compassion from others is at the heart of this week's conversation with Dr Stan Steindl. Dr Steindl shares three different flows of compassion, what can stand in the way of us being open to receiving compassion from others, the components of compassion and how Compassion Focused Therapy helps us to notice our suffering and learn how we can help alleviate suffering in ourselves and others. 

A clinical psychologist, Dr Stan Steindl is a leader in the science, practice and application of compassion. He's an Adjunct Professor at the University of Queensland (UQ), co-director of the UQ Compassionate Mind Research Group, author and founder of the YouTube channel, Compassion in a T-shirt.
