Deepening Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC)

Teacher: Natalie Bell, PT, CMF

The Deepening Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) course will allow us to spend more time with each of the major practices of MSC. We will explore in more detail:

• The power of the Self Compassion Break in your daily life
• Developing more personalized Loving Kindness phrases
• Discover a personal communication style to grow your inner compassionate and motivational voice.
• Work more skillfully with difficult emotions and shame
• Explore challenging relationships with the practice Finding our Unmet Needs
• Giving and Receiving compassion, and forgiveness in relationships
• Deepen your ability to embrace your life through the practices of gratitude, savoring, and self appreciation...so needed as we keep growing our capacity for compassion

In this class we go deeper with exercises we don't have time for in the first eight week MSC program and revisit those others so they become a foundation for our daily lives. We will also have a chance to spend more time in shared group engagement.

The 8-week course consists of eight weekly, 2 hour sessions, along with a ½ day retreat. Each weekly class offers a lively blend of instruction, group discussion, meditation practice and class exercises – all in a supportive and nourishing environment.

Class meets:  Thursdays, September 20 - November 8 from 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Half day Retreat: Sunday, October 7
