The strategy described in this book is called COMPASS, which is an acronym for “Compassion and Analytical Selective-Focus Skills.”
Selective-focus skills suggest contemplations that can help to generate and enhance compassionate insight. These exercises follow an “emotional logic” in which one step produces a basis for cultivating the next.
These skill steps are broken down in detail within each section of the book containing a discussion of the purpose of the skill being presented, supporting research for it, examples of its use, and short exercises for the reader to try in order to cultivate and enhance it.
Details of these pilot studies are included along with a handbook for helping professionals in the prevention and healing of compassion fatigue.
