It is important to practice selfcompassion from "summary" of Overthinking by Jon Power

Self-compassion is a concept that is often overlooked in our daily lives. We tend to be our own harshest critics, constantly berating ourselves for our perceived flaws and mistakes. However, practicing self-compassion is crucial for our mental well-being and overall happiness. When we practice self-compassion, we are able to treat ourselves with the same kindness and understanding that we would offer to a friend in need. This means being gentle with ourselves when we make mistakes, and showing ourselves the same empathy that we would extend to others. By practicing self-compassion, we can cultivate a sense of inner peace and self-acceptance. In the book "Overthinking", the author emphasizes the importance of self-compassion in overcoming negative thought patterns and breaking free from the cycle of overthinking. When we are kind to ourselves and acknowledge our own humanity, we are better equipped to deal with the challenges that life throws our way. Self-compassion allows us to let go of perfectionism and unrealistic expectations, and instead focus on our own growth and development. By treating ourselves with compassion and forgiveness, we can move past our mistakes and learn from them, rather than dwelling on them and becoming stuck in a cycle of self-criticism.
  1. Self-compassion is a powerful tool that can help us navigate the ups and downs of life with grace and resilience. By practicing self-compassion, we can cultivate a deep sense of self-worth and compassion that will benefit not only ourselves, but also those around us. It is important to remember that self-compassion is not a sign of weakness, but rather a strength that allows us to thrive in the face of adversity.
