Are you hard on yourself when things go wrong? Or even when they go right?
Using mindfulness and self-compassion practices, we’ll get curious about that negative self-talk and move towards a kinder voice. At this 3-hour workshop we’ll learn simple, effective tools for being kinder to ourselves by understanding and reinventing that negative voice in our heads.
Yes, we can encourage excellence in ourselves and take care of our needs, without harsh inner criticism. A more compassionate inner voice is possible! In this workshop, we find out how. Look forward to reflections, exercises, discussions, and meditations from our Mindful Self-Compassion program to help you understand and transform the inner critic.
This workshop will include:
- Supportive guided meditations
- Mindful journaling practices (please bring a notebook & pen or pencil)
- Small and large group discussion
- Practical tools for working with your inner critic in everyday life

“When I first took the Mindful Self-Compassion class years ago the unit that really stood out for me was the inner critic work. I thought I didn’t have much of a ‘problem’ with mine, but I soon learned both how powerful it can be, and how negative. But I also learned that transformation is possible.”
