'[A] timely book on compassion and its cultivation' The Dalai Lama

'The bravest, cleverest and most engaging book I know on why we need to cultivate compassion' Jon Kabat-Zinn

'A practical toolkit for becoming a better human being' Daniel Goleman

Self-compassion is the overlooked key to achieving our goals. It can lead to increased happiness, stress reduction, a stronger sense of purpose, better health and a longer life. Yet many of us resist compassion, worrying that if we are too compassionate with others we will be taken advantage of and if we are too compassionate with ourselves we won't achieve our goals in life.

Using the latest science, psychology (from contemporary Western and classical Buddhist sources) as well as stories from others and his own extraordinary life, Jinpa shows us how to train our compassion muscle. His powerful programme, derived from his remarkable course in Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT), is the perfect guide to achieving a greater sense of wellbeing.

Thupten Jinpa is a former monk and holds a Ph.D. from Cambridge University, where he also worked as a research fellow.
