Cultivating Compassion for the Angry and Anxious Self

Free Compassion Focused Therapy audio

A guided exercise to help cultivate warmth and understanding toward difficult emotional states. This Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) practice invites listeners to develop compassion for parts of themselves that experience anxiety or anger, emotions that are often met with judgment or avoidance. 

Through gentle mindfulness and visualization, the exercise helps clients learn to approach these emotions with kindness, patience, and acceptance, key elements in building emotional resilience and self-regulation.

Use this resource to:

  • Support compassion-focused work in therapy

  • Teach clients to respond to anger and anxiety with care, not criticism

  • Integrate mindfulness and compassion into CBT or CFT sessions

To deepen your understanding of CFT and learn directly from the founder, see our course, Compassion Focused Therapy.
