What We Know About Self-Compassion with Dr. Chris Germer

Episode Notes

Dr. Chris Germer is a clinical psychologist, lecturer on psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, and co-developer of the Mindful Self-Compassion program with Dr. Kristin Neff. Dr. Germer explains why nearly every culture teaches us to carve ourselves out of the circle of compassion, and why the way back in is simple enough that anyone can learn it.
