Self compassion, the ability to be kind and caretaking toward oneself in times of pain, loss and failure, is at the heart of the spiritual journey. Yet practicing self compassion is one of the great challenges many of us face in a world that rewards us for being tough on ourselves and always asking for more. Using group dialog, meditation, movement, journaling and joyful bodily rejuvenation, this loving and humor-filled workshop will help you listen to the wise, authentic voice that is already inside you, and to become more forgiving, compassionate, creative and whole. This course includes a trip to Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Spa.
