self-compassion resources
THE BOY, THE MOLE, THE FOX, AND THE HORSE
This beautiful book inspires self-compassion for its readers. It is the kind of book that may be treasured by children and adults alike as most of us can benefit from learning to speak to ourselves more gently. Through whimsical illustrations and dialogue between the four characters, this book is filled with so many nuggets of wisdom on themes such as being kind to yourself, true bravery, asking for help, love, strength, vulnerability, and journeying forward.
