Recently I was reading a thread on here which gave a link to this Somatic perspectives on psychotherapy podcast
It’s a podcast that talks about the importance of the sufferer using compassion as a tool to help integrate themselves.
So, I asked my sufferer, about the time we spent together the other week, (it was difficult but she struggled through it as I was leaving for a while) I asked her if her present self could say something compassionate towards her last week self. And the message I got back is that she feels compassionate towards me.
As a non sufferer, it’s illuminating that she couldn’t say anything compassionate towards herself, even her last week self. But gently, I will try to ask her again.
I wondered if any of you had any comments on this?
