I'm tired of feeling stressed out every day." "I can't stand having so little impact,
despite caring so much and working so hard." "I just don't have anything left to give."
Over years of developing and teaching their renowned Mindful Self-Compassion
program, Kristin Neff and Christopher Germer have found MSC to be uniquely helpful
for people struggling with the soul-draining depletion of burnout - from health care
professionals, teachers, and caregivers, to tapped-out business owners and employees.
Each chapter in this engaging book offers an empathic story of someone stretched to
their limits and an easily digestible bite of self-compassion that culminates in a simple
anti-burnout tool based on MSC practices. Learn quick and powerful ways to recharge
your batteries, de-stress, and, above all, be kind to yourself - so you can be there for
others.
