Cultivate the heart of Self-Compassion

Self-compassion “involves treating yourself the way you would treat a friend who is having a hard time. . .
. . . a practice in which we learn to be a good friend to ourselves when we need it most.”

(The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook by Kristen Neff, PhD and Christopher Germer, PhD, 2018)
This gentle ​Self-Compassion Retreat day offers a unique  opportunity to build a strong foundation of compassion and learn to support yourself through life's inevitable challenging moments.

Self-compassion can open up the doors to our happiness and our day-to-day joyful mood and experiences.
It allows us to love the wholeness of who we are, in every situation, by inviting the wholeness of our emotions.

By developing our self-compassion, every difficult situation we go through increases our self-love and self-confidence, rather than deteriorating it.

Learn how to cultivate and transform your mind, body, heart, and life through the healing meditations of compassion, expanding and deepening your sense of aliveness, self-compassion and well-being.

This retreat is for you if you have done an 8-week mindfulness course and you:
  • would like to connect more with the qualities of the heart, such as compassion, kindness, gratitude and joy.
  • want to deepen your mindfulness practice and learn a new set of practices within this approach.
  • find yourself criticising or judging yourself harshly.
  • want to learn wiser and more helpful ways to relate to difficulties.
  • are interested in understanding yourself better and learning how and why we get into unhelpful patterns.
​
Join us and come together with other like minded people to nourish our minds, bodies and hearts for living a happy, healthy, abundant life.

Through our desire to make a difference in these times when every penny counts in the home, the trustees of Peer 2 Peer Mindfulness have decided there is no fixed fee for participation on this self-compassion retreat day. 
You are invited to make a donation to Peer 2 Peer Mindfulness which will be used to provide mindfulness for underprivileged groups and individuals. Please set your own donation amount.
