Self-Compassion Training Clinical Trial
Official title:
''Invitation to Self-Compassion: Reshaping the Burden of Care in the Light of Self-Compassion Training Given to Relatives of Patients in Palliative Care.''
The concept of self-compassion is a concept that has been frequently the subject of research lately and has gained importance along with positive psychology. It is also referred to as self-understanding and self-compassion in the literature. The concept of self-compassion used in our study represents the concept of self-compassion in its original form as used in foreign sources. Compassion is classified according to the source to which it is directed or received. It is suggested that there are three different flows: the feeling of compassion that the individual directs from himself to others, the feeling of compassion he receives from others, and the feeling of compassion that he directs directly to his own self. It means showing oneself the same compassion and understanding one does to others, accepting and being open to one's own pain, and being accepting of oneself without being judgmental. Individuals with self-compassion believe that the difficulties, flaws and shortcomings they experience are normal. At the same time, they are aware that being human has characteristics and that everyone can experience these situations. Individuals may be less compassionate towards themselves than they are towards others. Individuals with self-compassion are as understanding, forgiving and loving towards themselves as they are towards other people.
