Chapter 5
In this chapter we talked about a great strategy where you use the acronym called RAIN. This is coined by Tara Brach, who is a phychotherapist with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology.
- This is an easy-to-use tool for practicing mindfulness and compassion.
- We can use the RAIN method when we encounter a difficult situation, to make the feeling a little less emotional and getting some distance to it.
- We also talk about what happens when we are overly critical of ourselves and how we can start to change this. Lastly, we introduce the Concept of ‘what can Batman do’.
Here’s the worksheet for this section …
Print this out and use it to help you work through the information in the video, and to do the self study ‘Reflections’ so that you can apply the information to your own situation.
We hope you enjoy working this way.
Don’t forget to make your own notes and observations.
