Build inner strength and self-compassion
Do you easily support others during tough times but judge yourself harshly when you struggle? If 'yes', you are certainly not alone.
Self-compassion isn’t about being self-indulgent or selfish. This is about meeting life’s challenges with kindness and understanding, backed by solid scientific research. It helps you feel more confident, cared for, capable, and emotionally strong.
This interactive session lets you reflect and recognise how you speak negatively to yourself. You’ll learn practical skills to show yourself the same kindness, patience, and understanding you’d give a good friend. Develop more resilience and adapt to challenging situations.
