SUMMARY:Day-Long Self-Compassion Training for Peers in Crisis Settings
DESCRIPTION:Self-Compassion is the practice of befriending ourselves just the way we are. It gives us strategies to live fully through both the joys and the sorrows of our lives. It reminds us that all human beings struggle\, and we are not alone. It is a powerful tool for emotional resilience that teaches us to support ourselves with kindness and compassion instead of harshness and self-criticism. In this class we will explore why mindfulness is the foundation of self-compassion and how we can leverage these practices to live happier and more productive lives. \nIn peer-reviewed studies\, Mindful Self-Compassion has been shown to significantly increase compassion for self and others as well as life satisfaction. It has also been shown to decrease depression\, anxiety\, and stress. \nWhat you will learn: \n\nWhat self-compassion is\, the benefits\, and the research that supports it.\nThe three elements of Self-Compassion.\nThe myths of self-compassion.\nHow to motivate yourself with self-compassion instead of self-criticism.\nHow we cause ourselves unnecessary suffering and what to do about it.\n\nHow to prepare: \n\nWear loose comfortable clothing.\nHave a water bottle and snacks available.\nArrange to keep technology to a minimum.\nThere will be a 60-minute lunch break and two 15-minute Breaks.\nSuspend judgment and meet the day with curiosity.\n\nWhat’s included:  \n\nSelf-Compassion Participant Handbook.\nLinks to self-compassion meditations and practices.\n\nCarol Hendershot\, Exp RYT 500 Yoga Instructor\nCertified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Instructor\nCo-Founder\, Grand Rapids Center for Mindfulness \nCarol has been teaching Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) since 2008 and Mindful Self-Compassion classes since 2014.
