As a self-compassion researcher I get asked all the time for resources that people can use to help them cultivate self-acceptance and self-compassion, so I was really excited to receive an email from Sounds True about their online Self-Acceptance course. This course runs for 12 weeks and has a host of amazing and inspiring people presenting video talks on self-compassion:
