ONLINE COURSES & WORKSHOPS
Due to Covid19 safety measures, all of our programs have moved online. We are available for classes, presentations, and workshops worldwide, held via Zoom or your organization's web platform of choice. New topics include cultivating resilience in times of upheaval, managing increasing levels of stress and anxiety, and addressing the challenges of working at home. |
Cultivating Resilience through Mindfulness & Self-Compassion Training
In today's busy rush of life, we can forget to take the time to pay attention to the things that really matter. Our current ways of working and living have trained our brains to be fragmented and distracted, and this has resulted in decreased happiness, increased illness, and reduced productivity. On top of this habit of mind-lessness, our tendency to criticize ourselves when we struggle and fail increases the likelihood of anxiety, depression, and burnout. All of this has made it increasingly difficult to thrive.
Fortunately, there is another way.
And you don't need bells, incense, or to sit like a pretzel.
Mindfulness, the practice of being aware of what is happening right now, in this moment, and exploring that awareness with a curious and non-judgmental attitude, is a skill that can be learned. Neuroscience and research are increasingly showing that learning and practicing mindfulness helps us to change old habits, opening the door to new possibilities.
Self-compassion is the act of bringing kindness to ourselves when we encounter difficult times, in effect becoming our own supportive coach. Research is demonstrating that those of us who are more self-compassionate actually have increased motivation, improved resilience, and decreased burnout.
All of our programs blend evidence-based practices with real-world practicality, delivered in engaging and informative workshops, classes, and presentations.

Why Mindfulness & Self-Compassion?

Focus, Clarity, & Productivity
At work and in life, the capacity to sustain attention is critically important to being effective and productive. Seeing the reality of what is present is necessary for optimal performance.
With mindfulness, perspectives are widened and calmed, rather than being narrowed and frantic, and much like "mental hygiene", mindfulness clears out the clutter so that the day can be managed with more efficiency, clarity and creativity. Self-compassion offers us the benefits of a 24/7 internal motivational coach, supporting and encouraging us through the many challenges and setbacks we encounter in life. |
