Discussion for Building Resilience - Self Compassion

Most of us spend more time in our heads or talking to ourselves than we will ever spend talking with others. Would you say to others, a good friend for example, the types of things you say to yourself? Using the principles of self-compassion, we’ll examine how the messaging we give ourselves impacts our feelings, mood, outlook, and success. By holding more compassion for ourselves, we make room to welcome greater understanding that is rooted in kindness for us and those around us. Join our conversation as we explore opportunities to understand what self-compassion is and how you can put it to work for you! 

Please join us for an online discussion with OITE Wellness Advisor, Fabian Drain.  The discussion group provides a welcoming and confidential space to explore positive and proactive ways to build resilience and self-care skills. Even if you can't join us for the entire hour, we encourage you to still attend.
