    Neff, K. D. & Germer, C. (2017). Self-Compassion and Psychological Wellbeing. In J. Doty (Ed.) Oxford Handbook of Compassion Science, Chap. 27. Oxford University Press. Self-Compassion and Psychological Well-being Kristin Neff and Christopher Germer This chapter will provide an overview of theory and research on self-compassion and its link to psychological well-being, which is the goal of clinical practice. It will discuss what self- compassion is and what it isn't (e.g., a form of weakness, selfishness, etc.), and provide empirical evidence to support these distinctions. Finally, it will discuss methods that have been developed to teach individuals how to be more self-compassionate in their daily lives, some clinical implications of self-compassion training, and future directions for research. What is self-compassion? To better understand what is intended by the term self-compassion, it is helpful to first consider what it means to feel compassion for others, a concept many of us have more familiarity with. Compassion involves sensitivity to the experience of suffering, coupled with a deep desire to alleviate that suffering (Goertz, Keltner & Simon-Thomas, 2010). This means opening one’s awareness to the pain of others, without avoiding or disconnecting from it, allowing feelings of kindness towards others and a desire to ameliorate their suffering to emerge (Wispe, 1991). Compassion also involves an understanding of the shared human condition, fragile and imperfect as it is, as well as a willingness to extend that understanding to others when they fail or make mistakes. Instead of looking away or rolling up your window when you pull up next to that homeless man at a stoplight, for example, you pause and take a moment to reflect on how 1 difficult things are for him.

  • Creating Compassion and Connection in the Work Place
    16Journal of Systemic Therapies, Vol. 25, No. 1, 2006, pp. 16–36 O’Brien CREATING COMPASSION AND CONNECTION IN THE WORK PLACE PETER J. O’BRIEN, M.S.W. Foothills Medical Centre This article raises questions about what contributes to creating a com- passionate work environment and sustaining connections that are meaningful in relation to clients and colleagues. Concepts including burnout, compassion fatigue, vicarious traumatization and counter- transference are examined, with attention to how they complicate the establishment of a compassionate work place. Factors are discussed which further influence the work environment and inhibit the creation of the desired culture. Individual and institutional steps are then sug- gested that can be taken to establish a preferred work environment. In particular, practices are considered within the workplace that com- bat some of the undesirable symptoms, or that lead to the acknowl- edgment of contributions to a healthy environment and which foster human connections. As I enjoyed a concert by the 60’s band the Turtles, I was struck by the sense of connection and joy communicated throughout the concert by the two lead singers. I wondered what factors contributed to their apprecia- tion for one another and what meaning they attach to their life work, span- ning some forty years of collaboration. The purpose of this paper is to first raise questions about what contrib- utes to creating a compassionate work environment and sustaining con- nections that are meaningful in the mental health context. A case example will illustrate some of the common challenges in health care. Then, an examination of factors in our culture and our work settings that compli- Address correspondence to Peter O’Brien, M.S.W.

  • Somatic Markers, Working Memory, and Decision Making
    Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience 2002, 2 (4), 341-353 Somatic markers, working memory, and decision making JOHN M. HINSON, TINA L. JAMESON, and PAUL WHITNEY Washington State University, Pullman, Washington The somatic marker hypothesis formulated by Damasio (e.g., 1994; Damasio, Tranel, & Damasio, 1991)argues that affectivereactions ordinarily guide and simplify decision making. Although originally intended to explain decision-making deficits in people with specific frontal lobe damage, the hypothe- sis also applies to decision-making problems in populations without brain injury. Subsequently, the gambling task was developed by Bechara (Bechara, Damasio, Damasio, & Anderson, 1994) as a diag- nostic test of decision-making deficit in neurological populations. More recently, the gambling task has been used to explore implications of the somatic marker hypothesis, as well as to study suboptimal de- cision making in a variety of domains. We examined relations among gambling task decision making, working memory (WM) load, and somatic markers in a modified version of the gambling task. In- creased WM load produced by secondary tasks led to poorer gambling performance. Declines in gam- bling performance were associated with the absence of the affective reactions that anticipate choice outcomes and guide future decision making. Our experiments provide evidence that WM processes contribute to the development of somatic markers. If WM functioning is taxed, somatic markers may not develop, and decision making may thereby suffer. One of the most consistent challenges of daily life is & Damasio, 2000). That is, decision making is guided by the management of information in order to continually the immediate outcomes of actions, without regard to what make decisions about courses of action.

  • A Balanced Psychology and a Full Life, Seligman
    Published online 18 August 2004 A balanced psychology and a full life Martin E. P. SeligmanÃ, Acacia C. Parks and Tracy Steen Positive Psychology Center, University of Pennsylvania, 3701 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA Psychology since World War II has been largely devoted to repairing weakness and understanding suffering. Towards that end, we have made considerable gains. We have a classification of mental illness that allows international collaboration, and through this collaboration we have developed effective psychotherapeutic or pharmacological treatments for 14 major mental disorders. However, while building a strong science and practice of treating mental illness, we largely forgot about everyday well-being. Is the absence of mental illness and suffering sufficient to let individuals and communities flourish? Were all disabling conditions to disappear, what would make life worth living? Those committed to a science of positive psychology can draw on the effective research methods developed to understand and treat mental illness. Results from a new randomized, placebo-controlled study demonstrate that people are happier and less depressed three months after completing exercises targeting positive emotion. The ultimate goal of positive psychology is to make people happier by understanding and building positive emotion, gratification and meaning. Towards this end, we must supplement what we know about treating illness and repairing damage with knowledge about nurturing well-being in individuals and communities. Keywords: positive psychology; happiness; optimism; meaning; depression; interventions 1. A BALANCED PSYCHOLOGY quite difficult to pinpoint. After 50 years and 30 billion American psychology before World War II had three objec- dollars of research, psychologists and psychiatrists can boast tives: the first was to cure mental illness, the second was to that we are now able to make troubled people less miserable, make relatively untroubled people happier, and the third and that is surely a significant scientific accomplishment.

  • The Origins and Transformation of Emotional Pain Version 3.2 by Hans Welling & Neta Ofer
    The Origins and Transformation of Emotional Pain version 3.2 by Hans Welling & Neta Ofer (Hans Welling, Integra, Lisbon, Portugal) (Neta Ofer, The new school of psychotherapy of the IDC and Geha hospital for mental health, Herzelia, Israel) Abstract The authors present an integrative model of emotional pain derived from their practice with AEDP (Fosha, 2000). The model is centered around 3 different types of pain: core emotional pain; relational pain, and self-pain. The authors show how each pain originates from 3 different innate fears and how triggering the emotional memory of such pain is central in psychological suffering. They argue that correct conceptualization is essential to work with the right transformational process, as healing is achieved for each type of emotional pain by 3 corresponding distinct processes. 1. For transforming core emotional pain: regulation of emotion by undoing aloneness and processing emotions and action tendencies to completion. 2. For transforming relational pain: validation of needs and promoting connection through expression and reception. 3. For transforming self-pain: undoing shame by compassion and the re-assessment and integration of parts that were disowned as unworthy. The authors argue that patients generally have all 3 kinds of pain, and an ongoing conceptualization can be very helpful to identify what kind of pain is active in the session, to understand what healing process is required at each moment. 1. Introduction We consider emotional pain as one of the most important sources of human suffering, and we view psychotherapy as the fundamental method for transforming this emotional pain and opening the door to wellbeing and thriving.
