A journey toward compassion and self-compassion

Part of a travel-linked series, Camino De La Luna connects a journey through Switzerland, Rome and onward to Sri Lanka with reflections on compassion and self-compassion. Its central question is practical: how can compassion be distinguished from pity, self-sacrifice or the impulse to fix another person’s problems? The description also frames self-compassion as recognizing one’s needs and, at times, choosing to stop or walk away. Travel and personal reflection meet in a book concerned with the boundaries between caring for others and responding honestly to oneself.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults interested in travel writing connected to personal reflection
  • Readers exploring compassion, self-compassion and personal boundaries
  • Those following Pearl Howie’s Camino De La Luna series

Book overview

The fourth in this series (or sixth including the self help manual "free Feeling Real Emotions Everyday" and prequel "Japan Is Very Wonderful") "Camino De La Luna - Compassion and Self Compassion" continues the journey. What is compassion? Something alive perhaps, that can only be understood in practice. So often confused with pity or the self-sacrificing impulse to take on another's burden, to make things better, to fix. It takes strength and delicacy and it doesn't mean giving away your life savings. Self compassion is sometimes the place between pushing through and giving up, the moment we can recognize our true needs, not our desires even if they're for further suffering. Sometimes the moment we find self compassion is the moment we stop and walk away. I had found forgiveness in Switzerland and now I was heading to friends in Rome before taking the leap to South East Asia, to Sri Lanka, to a new understanding of compassion and self compassion. Also available as a colour paperback.
