“Self-compassion—treating oneself with the same kindness and respect as we would treat a good friend—is a powerful inner resource.”
Expectations are very high for men in all areas of their lives—health, wealth, love and work. It’s really not possible to do it all—all the time—because they're only human.
Maybe there is a way to deal with all the expectations in a constructive and supportive manner? Maybe you can actually thrive in the midst of constant challenges?
Self-compassion is not necessarily a quality that men are taught in childhood. However, it is an essentials skill for men to live meaningful, peaceful and joyous lives. Some men are naturally self-compassionate. Fortunately, anyone can become more self-compassionate with specialised training.
This is an introduction to the practice of self-compassion and I hope you can join us!
Day: Sunday, 29 November 2020.
Time: 7:30 pm to 8:45 pm (AEST) Melbourne, Australia.
Price: $43.29
Please extend this invitation with all the men in your life.
Thank you and I hope to see you then!
