EVENT DETAILS

LEARN MORE

A workshop on the Core Skills for Mindful Self-Compassion, held over four
half-day sessions with Kristin Neff, Ph.D. and Christopher Germer, Ph.D.

Held entirely online, with recordings available following the training!

This course is approved for 11 Continuing Education (CE) credits. See additional
details on the Continuing Education Tab.

Developed by Christopher K. Germer, Ph.D., leader in the integration of
mindfulness and psychotherapy, and Kristin Neff, Ph.D., pioneering researcher in
the field of self-compassion, the empirically supported Mindful Self-Compassion
(MSC) training combines the skills of mindfulness and self-compassion, providing
a powerful tool for emotional resilience.

Mindfulness is the first step in emotional healing—being able to turn toward and
acknowledge our difficult thoughts and feelings (such as inadequacy, sadness,
anger, confusion) with a spirit of openness and curiosity. Self-compassion
involves responding to these difficult thoughts and feelings with warmth and
support so that we comfort ourselves when we’re hurting and take action to make
needed changes. Research has shown that self-compassion greatly enhances
emotional well-being. It boosts happiness, reduces anxiety and depression, and
can even help maintain healthy lifestyle habits such as diet and exercise. Being
both mindful and compassionate leads to greater ease and well-being in our daily
lives.

This workshop is completely live and online. Program activities will include
short talks, meditation, experiential exercises, group discussion, and home
practices. The goal is for participants to directly experience self-compassion
and learn practices that evoke self-compassion in daily life.

No previous experience with mindfulness or meditation is required to attend this
workshop.
