Explanation of Exercise

The practice starts by listening to the Reframing exercise, Meditation on Courage and Compassion.  This guided mindful emotion regulation exercise invites you to adopt a courageous and self-compassionate perspective on the difficult situations in your life. The goal of reframing is to notice and soften the harshness of fearful and self-critical thoughts when they arise by invoking alternative, self-validating statements.
