Cultivate Your Inner Rsilience.

A Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) Workshop for professionals.

This workshop is relevant for mental health professionals, mindfulness teachers and general work settings.  MSC combines the skills of mindfulness and self-compassion to enhance our capacity for emotional wellbeing.  We can deliver in your workplace on request.

  • Occupational Therapists, Dublin

 

Most of us feel compassion when a close friend is struggling.  What would it be like to receive that same caring attention from yourself when you need it the most?  This requires a shift in attention—recognizing that as a human being, you, also, are a worthy of compassion. Self-compassion is learned, in part, by connecting with our own innate ability to be compassionate which in turn expands our capacity to be compassionate with others.

 

Burgeoning research shows that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional wellbeing, coping with life challenges, lower levels of anxiety and depression, healthy habits such as diet and exercise, and more satisfying personal relationships. It is an inner strength that enables us to be more fully human—to acknowledge our shortcomings, learn from them, and make necessary changes with an attitude of kindness and self-respect. 

 

Workshop Learning Objectives

  • Identify the three key components of self-compassion;

  • Describe key research that supports the benefits of self-compassion

  • Practice techniques to increase self-compassion in everyday life

  • Motivate yourself with kindness rather than self-criticism

  • Understand the role of self-compassion in caregiver fatigue.


The format include talks, meditation, experiential exercises, and group discussion. Participants will directly experience self-compassion and learn practices that promote self-compassion in daily life.

No previous experience with mindfulness or meditation is required to attend the program.
