  • Mindful Self-Compassion 5 day Retreat Nanaimo

    The Haven 240 DAVIS RD, Gabriola Island, British Columbia, Canada

    MSC teaches principles and practices that enable you (and your clients) to respond to life’s difficult moments with kindness, care and understanding.

    Rapidly expanding research demonstrates that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional wellbeing, reduced anxiety, depression and stress, maintenance of healthy habits such as diet and exercise, and satisfying personal relationships.

    Self-compassion can be learned by anyone. It’s a skill that provides emotional strength and resilience, allowing us to admit our shortcomings, motivate ourselves with kindness, forgive ourselves when needed, relate wholeheartedly to others, and be more authentically ourselves.

    Through talks, exercises, meditation, discussion, poetry, and short films this program shows you how to:

    Practice self-compassion in daily life
    Understand the science of self-compassion
    Motivate yourself with kindness rather than criticism
    Handle difficult emotions with greater ease
    Manage caregiver fatigue
    Teach self-compassion exercises to clients
    This program is open to helping professionals and anyone wishing to bring more self-compassion into their life.

    CMSC and GEI invite professionals and students interested in Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) to join a unique training retreat. International delegations travel to a developing country in Africa or Asia to engage with local professionals and enjoy an MSC intensive course. Every person who signs up to attend, will allow two local people to also participate in the program, thereby meeting the main pre-requisite for attending MSC Teacher Training in the future. 2018 destinations include Vietnam and Kenya.
