cOMPASSION

Compassion: A tale of courage / three emotional regulation systems

Threat - a better safe than sorry system,  fight, flight, freeze or appease response, for survival and keeping safe


Drive - Achieve goals, motivation and focus


Soothing - link to compassion, self-soothing, times when we feel safe, content and secure 

Developing a compassionate mind

Highlighting the tricky brain we all have, different parts of the brain have different functions. We can work on this to allow all parts to coexist by developing a compassionate figure. 

What do you need in those times of high emotions to activate the soothing system? How would you like to be treated? What tone of voice? How would your compassionate figure respond in this situation?
