Based on the research of Dr. Kristin Neff and Dr. Brené Brown, this course will provide an overview of the research on self-compassion, define what self-compassion is and challenge the myths about self-compassion that lead people to be overly harsh and critical with themselves. The connection between self-criticism and shame based perfectionism will be discussed as an unseen barrier to high performance. Finally, the instructor will illustrate how increased self-compassion can improve your work performance while enhancing and protecting your health and well-being.

You can join the conversation in person, or participate in the group process on-line via Zoom.
