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.
1
Show up
Every day we can practise coming back to the present moment.
2
Understand
We remain curious about what others are experiencing and begin to recognise everyone’s story is complex and there are many pathways forward.
3
Move closer
When things go wrong we have a perfect opportunity to move closer. This is your invitation to celebrate our shared humanity.
4
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.
