Participants of this one-day workshop will learn some core skills from the 8-week Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) training, an empirically-supported program designed to cultivate self-compassion using meditation, daily life practices, lecture, group exercises and discussion. You will be provided with essential tools for treating yourself in a kind, compassionate way whenever you suffer, fail, or feel inadequate.
Mindful Self-Compassion One Day Core Skills Workshop
Parkdale Community Centre 3512 - 5 Ave NW, CalgaryResearch suggests that mindfulness interventions, particularly those with an added lovingkindness component, have the potential to increase self-compassion among health professionals. Mindful Self-Compassion is an evidence-based skills training program developed by Neff (Texas) and Germer (Harvard) and shown to have a strong association with positive emotions (overall wellbeing, better relationships, happiness) and with less negative emotions (anxiety, depression, anger).
