Translation from German to English:

The Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) program was developed by developmental psychologist and researcher Kristin Neff together with clinical psychologist Christopher Germer.  This intensive seminar is an opportunity to experience MSC directly with Christopher Germer and MSC trainer Arve Thürmann.

Research has shown that mindful self-compassion greatly promotes emotional well-being and reduces empathy fatigue. Self-compassion increases happiness, reduces anxiety and depression, and can help us to adopt healthy behaviors.

Luckily, self-compassion is a skill anyone can learn, including people who didn’t get enough affection in their childhood or who find it shameful to be kind to themselves. Self-compassion is actually a strong mental attitude to deal appropriately with such hurts—hurts we inflict on ourselves when we work, overeat, overanalyze, and overreact. Self-compassion leads to emotional strength and resilience.

It allows us to recover more quickly from the injured ego by acknowledging our mistakes, forgiving ourselves, and treating ourselves and others with care and respect. At the end of the day, it’s just part of being human to make mistakes.

The intensive seminar will be an experiential journey into the world of mindfulness and self-compassion, with meditation exercises, group exercises, lectures and technical discussions.

The seminar meets one of the requirements for training to become an MSC teacher.

Course language is German and English with consecutive translation.
