Four steps of
compassion

SUMA will help you understand how compassion works. With practice, these steps will become an powerful response to distress in yourself and others.

Show up

Every day we can practise coming back to the present moment.

Understand

We remain curious about what others are experiencing and begin to recognise everyone’s story is complex and there are many pathways forward.

Move closer

When things go wrong we have a perfect opportunity to move closer. This is your invitation to celebrate our shared humanity.

Act

Compassion is a verb and it demands action. This is where we powerfully connect with others from a place of vulnerability.

To support your practice, a poster has been created for you.

Chapter 2 is dedicated to SUMA in Mary’s book.
