Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) Program
10 weeks
An immersive self-care experience.
In March it will be a full year of the pandemic deeply affecting our lives. If you are feeling a bit tired or depleted, you are not alone. Our minds and bodies tend to have difficulty processing high levels of stress over extended periods of time.
Join us for the empirically-supported Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) program for an immersive self-care experience. This course is an opportunity to pause, rest and reflect; and to gently expand our capacity for compassion and mindful awareness to navigate life’s many ups and downs with a bit more wisdom and ease.
Explore compassion practices to:
- Soothe the mind, body, and heart
- Explore motivation with compassion
- Transform difficult relationships
- Manage burnout and compassion fatigue
- Cultivate loving-kindness, gratitude and savoring
- Soften self-criticism
- And more…
