Summary of Kristin Neff's Fierce Self-Compassion

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Women are fed up with traditional gender roles and societal power structures that restrict their ability to express the full range of who they are. They are allowed to be soft and nurturing, but if they are too fierce or angry, people call them names. #2 The Marvel Comics writer Jack Kirby was so amazed by a car accident he saw and a mother's effort to lift a three-thousand-pound vehicle to save her baby trapped underneath that he created the Incredible Hulk. #3 Women still live in a male-dominated society, and we need all the tools we can get to overcome this and emerge victorious. One of the most powerful weapons in our arsenal is caring force, which can be used to propel our personal journey of growth and healing at the same time that we fight for justice. #4 The latest development in my work is the unpackaging of the fierce and tender sides of self-compassion. I have found that everyone, regardless of age, gender, or culture, judges that it's better to care for and help rather than harm others, and that justice matters.
