The Gifts of Compassion Personal Practice Workbook (PDF)

This downloadable PDF workbook is designed to accompany Stan Steindl's popular self-help book The Gifts of Compassion: How to understand and overcome suffering. It is published as a printable PDF allowing you to easily print out and complete activities to enhance your own understanding of compassion and how it can help your wellbeing.

Following the same chapter structure as the book, it presents a series of exercises and activities designed to deepen your understanding and practice of compassion for others, receiving compassion from others, and offering compassion to yourself for your own challenges and struggles.

It provides the opportunity to think and reflect on life experiences and put into practice various strategies to enhance the cultivation of a compassionate mind. Working through activities such as Exploring your fears, blocks and resistances or Getting to know your shame will tap into your own intrinsic wisdom and allow it to flow onto the page, build  inner strength, and arrive at committed actions — the steps to take to live a more compassionate life.
