It’s a courageous attitude that stands up to harm, including the harm that we unwittingly inflict on ourselves through self-criticism, self-isolation, or self-absorption. Self-compassion provides emotional strength and resilience, allowing us to admit our shortcomings, motivate ourselves with kindness, forgive ourselves when needed, relate wholeheartedly to others, and be more authentically ourselves.
Rapidly expanding research demonstrates that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional wellbeing, less anxiety, depression and stress, maintenance of healthy habits such as diet and exercise, and satisfying personal relationships. And it’s easier than you think.

Week 1 – Discovering Self-Compassion – in this session we dive deeper into self-compassion – what it is and isn’t, the benefits, the research, misgivings, physiology of self-compassion and self-criticism as well as way to start cultivating self-compassion in to your life. I wonder if there is a difference between how you treat yourself in comparison to how you treat a friend?
Week 2 – Practising Mindfulness – this session, we bring another element of self-compassion in – mindfulness. We discuss resistance and how we can create unnecessary suffering, discovering the wandering mind, understanding backdraft as well as a variety of ways to practise mindfulness in daily life.
Week 3 – Discovering and Practising Living-Kindness – this session focuses on understanding the difference between loving kindness and compassion as well as how to evoke a felt sense of loving-kindness and compassion and how to use loving-kindness to a moment-to-moment experience.
Week 4 – Discovering Your Compassionate Voice – in this session we start to bring loving-kindness in to formal mediation, identify the stages of progress to self-compassion (including disillusionment) and start to begin motivating ourselves with compassion rather criticism or judgement.
Week 5 – Living Deeply – in this session we learn how to use breath meditation to cultivate compassion for self and others, how to discover core values and re-orienting to those in daily life, finding meaning in life’s challenges as well as practising compassion and self-compassion whilst listening to others.
Week 6 – Meeting Difficult Emotions – this session we evolve in to learning to meet difficult emotions by using mindfulness and self-compassion practise and understanding the meaning of shame and how self-compassion is an antidote to shame.
Week 7 – Exploring Challenging Relationships – in week 7, we explore meeting unmet needs in relationships with self-compassion as well as combining self-compassion and equanimity to manage caregiver fatigue.
Week 8 – Embracing Your Life – in the final week, we look at learning to practise savouring, gratitude and self-appreciation to correct the human negativity bias. We also take the time, to reflect on key insights and practises from the course.
