Mindful Self-Compassion is an opportunity to explore how we typically respond to ourselves when difficulties arise. It draws upon the skill of mindfulness and the resource of self-compassion to build inner strength and resilience so we can support ourselves, just as we would a dear friend.
The Short Course in Mindful Self-Compassion (SC-MSC) was developed by Kristin Neff, PhD, the pioneering researcher in the field of self-compassion and Christopher Germer, PhD, a leader in the integration of mindfulness, compassion and psychotherapy. It is an adapted version of the full 8-week course in MSC.
This course will be taught in 3 weeks, with two 1.5 hour sessions per week on Mondays and Thursdays. There will be short talks, experiential exercises, group discussion, and home practices all designed to help you cultivate self-compassion and enhance your emotional wellbeing.
Topics include:
– What is Self-Compassion
– Practicing Self-Compassion
– Discovering your Compassionate Voice
– Self-Compassion and Resilience
– Self-Compassion and Burnout
