Mindful Self Compassion - Embracing Yourself with Love and Compassion


Join me on Zoom for my 19th session of Mindful Self Compassion!

Together, we will go on an 8-week adventure to identify and develop our innate resource of self-compassion to enhance our capacity for emotional well-being. Most of us feel deep compassion for our close friends when they are struggling but how about yourself? What would it be like to receive the same caring attention from yourself, when you need it the most? Mindful Self-Compassion involves the capacity to comfort and soothe ourselves, and to motivate ourselves with encouragement when we suffer, fail, or feel inadequate.

WHAT IS MINDFUL SELF-COMPASSION?

Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) is an empirically-supported 8-week training program designed to cultivate the skill of self-compassion. Based on the groundbreaking research of Kristin Neff, PhD, and Christopher Germer, PhD, MSC teaches core principles and practices that enable participants to respond to difficult moments in their lives with kindness, care and understanding.

WHAT DO PARTICPANTS LEARN?

  • That self-compassion is a skill that can help you meet life’s difficulties with wisdom and kindness

  • How to offer yourself the compassion you would naturally extend to a dear friend or stranger

  • A courageous attitude of mind that will give you emotional stability and resilience to be more fully present with uncertainty so you can recover from life’s difficulties and move on with more ease and confidence
