I am a Certified Teacher of Mindful Self-Compassion, experienced in teaching both in-person and online.

Alongside teaching the full MSC 8week course online, I facilitate a monthly practice support group with Siri Chandler and guest teachers, called "ReConnecting with Mindful Self-Compassion" (Re-MSC). Taking place on the first Saturday of each month, Re-MSC is a shared space for teachers, experienced practitioners and those who have begun some kind of Mindfulness and/or a Compassion focused practice, practice, study informally and connect to our common humanity, through shared experience. Each month we have a theme which can be based directly on Mindful Self-Compassion. It can also be on some related theme from psychology, neuroscience, other areas of personal growth and life development. e.g. Emotional Intelligence, Non-Violent Communication, The Physiology of Touch., The Self-Healing Power of Forgiveness.
