That's a WRAP on the MSC Teacher Training in North Carolina!

Okay a bit late on this, but still feeling oh so grateful to the 35 souls who completed this training and are committed to sharing MSC in the world 🙏

And to this incredible teaching team, who I was in awe of teaching with. Kristin Neff once stated that she will only teach alongside some who, when she thinks of teaching with them, it makes her smile. I am still smiling...and laughing. Swipe to last pic 😂

Rather than keep mentally rehashing a conversation that went sideways, or spending so much energy figuring out yet another way to explain myself, I am making this choice. And it feels like I just took a heavy backpack off. It feels gooooodd.

You can take others misconceptions about you off, too 🔥✨

Thank you 🙏

We all need healthy, well-connected relationships to survive and thrive. As important as our relationships are, they are not always easy!

Compassion for Couples (CfC) is an 8-week, practice-based program designed to help us meet ourselves and our partner with greater self-awareness and compassion. CfC builds on the skills developed in the Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) program and moves deeper into compassion between partners. Utilizing the skills of mindfulness and compassion; this program teaches how to build a strong and healthy foundation for relationships, and provides concrete skills to help navigate difficulties that arise within us and between us. Compassion can help us hold ourselves and others with kindness, even in the midst of difficulty. And that creates the resilience we need for our relationship to thrive. While prior experience with MSC is helpful, it is not required.

Next course: Sundays, 1:00-3:00 pm EST | Online | January 12-March 9, 2024 | Facilitators: Megan Prager, MA & Sara Marlowe, MSW, RSW
