Healthy Boiler Virtual Workshop: Self-Compassion

Zoom

We all are compassionate people, yet we tend to exclude ourselves from our own circle of care which may have consequences in terms of our happiness and how we affect those around us.

In this session, we'll explore what self-compassion is and what it isn't and why it may be hard to be kind to ourselves. We will also discuss how it can help with stress and burnout thereby enhancing our well-being.

Open to all faculty and staff. Meeting link will be sent before the event. Registration deadline is July 11.

Jon Walker is a retired physician that found these practices extremely helpful and now devotes himself to offering trainings on this.

His workshops focus on foundational practices designed to cultivate self-compassion even in the midst of difficulties. They also offer some simple practices to bring more self-compassion into your home and work life.
