Dear Students,
I hope to see you this Wednesday for Self Compassion: Why It Matters and How to Build a Practice, happening from 12:00 - 1:30 PM in Pulitzer Hall.
Self-compassion has been shown to be a powerful tool for improving coping skills and enhancing emotional well-being. During this workshop, Aisha Holder, PhD will discuss the building blocks of self-compassion – mindfulness, self-kindness, and common humanity. She will also lead experiential exercises, so participants can practice incorporating the principles of self-compassion into their daily lives.
