The power of self-compassion - an essential life skill
An essential life skill to heal from self-criticism, guilt, shame, negativity, and much more…
Self-compassion is not self-pity – it’s a life-changing skill that strengthens our ability to heal, grow, and support others through adversity. This inspiring live online course will give you the tools and confidence to introduce self-compassion into your practice and personal life, enriching both.
Whether your clients are coping with the effects of trauma, abuse, bereavement, chronic illness, shame, perfectionism, or low self-worth, self-compassion can unlock transformative breakthroughs. It’s a powerful intervention for easing emotional pain and helping people move forward with greater resilience, self-understanding and hope.
As a practitioner, cultivating self-compassion is just as vital. It’s the antidote to burnout, helping you stay motivated, grounded and emotionally resourced in your work – so you can continue making a positive, lasting impact.
Grounded in research and practical application, this course will show you how to:
- understand and communicate the science and power of self-compassion
- help clients reduce self-criticism and shame
- use proven techniques to foster healing and emotional resilience
- protect your own wellbeing and prevent practitioner burnout
- you’ll leave equipped with techniques you can immediately use
Now more than ever, self-compassion is essential for those we support and for ourselves.
"I absolutely loved this course on developing self-compassion. It was really informative with lots of opportunities to engage in compassion practices. I particularly enjoyed using the breakout rooms to get to know other participants and learn from them. Julie was a brilliant trainer, so passionate and approachable with just the right amount of laid back humour. I highly recommend this course to anyone with an interest in self-compassion." Lauren Gent, counsellor.
