"The compassionate mind is the mind that transforms"

In this personal practice experiential workshop, the founder of CFT and CMT will guide us through the science and practice of cultivating a compassionate mind to help us navigate life's difficulties. We will explore how we can combine the science of compassion to help us develop more compassionate ways of relating to ourselves and others, and see how this in turn can have a profound impact on our bodies and brains. The workshop will then give participants the opportunity to practise particular types of compassion induction that are linked to breathing exercises, the use of voice tones, facial expressions, and emotion and motivational priming. Participants will then have an opportunity to explore how a compassion focused prime can be used as a context for working with emotional difficulties.
