If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion. – the Dalai Lama What’s the secret to happiness? Depending on who you ask, you’ll get a wide variety of answers.

That visit some years ago brought home to me the sheer scale of the technology. It was an impression confirmed later, gazing out from the north Kent coast at the vast…

“Oh, you know me; I’m a perfectionist.” Many, if not most, of us have either heard someone else say something like that or we’ve uttered it ourselves. But what does that really mean? What if there’s more than one kind of perfectionism, and what kinds of coping techniques might be useful for someone who identifies as a perfectionist? In a recent study, researchers built on prior work by looking at changes in how much people were using mindfulness and self-compassion techniques over a two-week period. They studied how people’s use of these approaches was linked to how they felt (i.e.,…
