[compassion]\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<p>however, i step back and posit <b>that in order for faculty to have this compassion and empathy for students they must first have it for themselves<\/b>. they must first be willing\u00a0 to practice self-kindness instead of self-judgement or self-criticism, and this is where self-compassion fits in. though the pandemic highlighted the need for self-compassion it is important during a pandemic and also in more normal times. faculty have always felt responsible for making things work in their teaching environments and they can often be hard on themselves when things don\u2019t work as well.\u00a0 at times the \u201ceither-or\u201d mentality permeates our minds and we struggle with the dissonance of being good in one area (say, classroom teaching) and struggling in another (online teaching). at the workshop, we invited participants to take a moment and embrace the \u201cboth-and\u201d. for example, i can be an instructional designer who coaches individual faculty well <i>and<\/i> someone who encounters resistance when planning a workshop for a large group. you can be a faculty who does great research, publishes well, and teaches effectively\u00a0 in a face-to-face setting <i>and someone<\/i> who struggles to put your classes online. that is ok.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"what\"><\/a>what is self-compassion?<\/h2>\n<p>in the workshop, we adopted neff\u2019s (2003), definition of self-compassion as having 3 elements:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>mindfulness vs. over-identification<\/li>\n<li>self kindness vs. self-judgement<\/li>\n<li>common humanity vs. isolation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>see\u00a0 figure 1.\u00a0 created by becca for a description of each.<\/p>\n<p><a

black (2018), describes self-compassion as becoming our own first responders and providing kindness upon arrival. this leads me to dispel some of the myths about self-compassion.\u00a0 self-compassion is not denial, it is acknowledging our mistakes, challenges, failures, however, instead of addressing them with self-judgement, we do so with the kindness of constructive feedback for the future.<\/p>\n<p>becca gave a great example of what this might look like when a parent comforts a child who has failed an exam. for example, a parent who provides a harsh and critical response might say something like:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u201ci\u2019m ashamed of you,\u201d or \u201cyou\u2019re stupid,\u201d or \u201cyou\u2019ll never amount to anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>rather than being motivating, that child will likely experience shame, a loss of self-confidence, or may give up trying altogether.<\/p>\n<p>on the other hand, a parent who provides a compassionate response might say something like:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u201cah man, what a bummer. you must be upset, give me a hug. it happens to all of us. we need to get these grades up because i know you really want to get into a good college. i believe in you. what can i do to support you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>it\u2019s important to notice that the compassionate response still recognizes the failure (mindfulness), recognizes and makes space for the associated emotions (mindfulness), recognizes that things like this happen to everyone (common humanity),\u00a0 provides encouragement that can help build self-confidence (self-kindness), and also recognizes that there may be hard work and effort required to change the situation.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>additionally, such a response is likely going to be far more motivating for that child to make a change, will preserve their self-confidence, and help them feel supported in the process. unfortunately, it\u2019s all too common for us to speak to ourselves like the parent who provided a harsh and critical response. self-compassion is about motivating ourselves with encouragement rather than criticism.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"how\"><\/a>how can we get there?<\/h2>\n<p>samantha gave a great analogy, that is we should view self-compassion as preventative vitamins rather than pain killers. that is we should develop a habit of self-compassion and make it part of our daily practice so it comes easier during the challenging times when we really need it. becca led us through a great exercise called a <a href=\"https:\/\/vanderbilt.box.com\/s\/95pvjevtidmo6pzlt3i3fu9yb3u2svto\">self-compassion break<\/a>. you can also experience this as a <a href=\"https:\/\/insighttimer.com\/kristinneff\/guided-meditations\/self-compassion-break-2\">guided meditation from kristin neff<\/a> on insighttimer. kristin also has some <a href=\"https:\/\/insighttimer.com\/kristinneff\">other guided meditations related to self-compassion<\/a> on insighttimer. these guided meditations are just one way\u00a0 to practice self-compassion. there is no right or wrong way, it is about what works for you in bringing awareness to how you are feeling, and what is most soothing to you in those moments. additionally, creating self reminders\u00a0 that, though the details may be unique to you, the feelings surrounding them are not (common humanity).<\/p>\n<p>b<a

invite you to <b>pause\u00a0 <\/b>and give some thought to small ways you could practice self-compassion in your life. samantha recommended selecting one area &#8211; mindfulness, self-kindness, or common humanity &#8211; where you would like to build a practice. you might even see this as an opportunity to be compassionate with yourself in goal-setting and assess and adjust your goals to make sure you are not overextending yourself too much. choose one domain where you feel you would benefit and look at ways to build in daily habits that reflect that value. we were very deliberate in the\u00a0 workshop not to jump from a focus on self to a focus on teaching and i recommend as you read this article you do the same. let\u00a0 what i have shared so far infuse in you before moving on.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"teach\"><\/a>what does self-compassion have to do with teaching?<\/h2>\n<p>teachers are an integral part of the teaching and learning experience. self-compassion allows us to be \u2018self-full\u2019 so we can extend the same kindness to our students and be true to ourselves. we can view ourselves like a car if there is no gas (self-empty) the car will not drive or perform effectively. self-compassion allows us to operate from a place of responding to ourselves and others versus reacting. therefore self-compassion benefits us and those around us. as i shift the attention to teaching i want us to consider always thinking about yourself first in the moment so that you can be fully equipped to handle students\u2019 needs.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>therefore the first tip is always be<a href=\"https:\/\/greatergood.berkeley.edu\/article\/item\/self_compassion_for_teachers\"> kind to yourself<\/a><\/li>\n<li>as we think about operating from a place of responding versus reacting think about what strategies can help us to respond versus react to our students. one way is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/cdr\/module-2\/assessing-student-needs-in-your-online-course\/\">assess students\u2019 needs before the course starts<\/a>. consider using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/brightspace\/how-do-i-set-up-a-survey\/\">brightspace survey<\/a> or google forms.<\/li>\n<li>check-in with students throughout the course using <a href=\"\/\/www.imrbdigital.com\/soliciting-and-utilizing-mid-semester-feedback\/\">mid-semester feedback<\/a> and other formative evaluation strategies.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/cdr\/module-2\/assessing-student-needs-in-your-online-course\/\">use course design to proactively show you care and facilitate ease in navigating your course<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.imrbdigital.com\/2021\/01\/overcoming-the-busywork-dilemma\/\">consider how motivational theory and situating learning can proactively enhance student

students;<\/a> being aware of suffering does not mean you are responsible for addressing the suffering.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><a name=\"reflect\"><\/a>using reflection questions<\/h2>\n<p>reflection questions are one way to bring self-compassion to the forefront of our lives. the table below has questions that allow us to focus on ourselves and our students\u2014recognizing that we often need to check in with ourselves first before responding to students\u2019 needs. for example, during the pandemic, many students are struggling; before responding to students\u2019 suffering, it\u2019s ok to ask ourselves how we feel about our own suffering and how we feel about responding to students\u2019 sufferings. <b>we also need to be mindful that a response may not require us to fulfill the need ourselves; sometimes, it is as simple as just having a willingness to see the need so we can refer students to available<\/b> <a
