Adding explicit self-compassion to existing interventions is likely to strengthen them and may produce results quickly.

“i personally think if we started looking at does adding explicit self-compassion into these interventions strengthen it i suspect you'd find it does we're not quite there i think you're right by the way i think that's exactly the way to go about doing it is you take interventions that are already known to have some efficacy and you layer this on because i think as your story explains this is a relatively straightforward intervention to teach somebody and the results can happen quite quickly”
