What is Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC)?

Most of us feel compassion for our close friends when they are struggling. What would it be like to receive the same caring attention from yourself when you needed it most? All that’s required is a shift in attention—recognizing that as a human being, you, too, are a worthy recipient of compassion.

Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) is an empirically-supported training program designed to cultivate the skill of self-compassion for personal growth. Based on the groundbreaking research of Kristin Neff and the clinical expertise of Christopher Germer, MSC teaches core principles and practices that enable participants to respond to difficult moments in their lives with kindness, care and understanding.

Join us for a one-hour session to learn a bit more about MSC:

• Learn three core elements of self-compassion
• Experience a self-compassion practice for moments of difficulty
• Leave with resources for yourself, and to share with others

With MSC Teachers and facilitators Emily Whyte Rubin and Heather Shaughnessy-Cato.

At the end of this session, we will reserve time for questions about our upcoming 10-week Mindful Self-Compassion program. The `10-week course registration page can be found at msc-spring2021.eventbrite.com.
