Wednesday and Fridays, July 21, 23, 28 and 30, 2020 – 4-7 pm Pacific, 6-9 Central and 7-10 Eastern

This workshop is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the key practices and exercises of the 8-week program, from the comfort of your home.

MSC combines the skills of mindfulness and self-compassion to enhance our capacity for emotional wellbeing. Mindfulness is the first step—turning with loving awareness toward difficult experience (emotions, sensations, thoughts). Self-compassion comes next—bringing loving awareness to ourselves. Together, mindfulness and self-compassion comprise a state of warm, connected presence during difficult moments in our lives.

Burgeoning research shows that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional wellbeing, coping with life challenges, lower levels of anxiety and depression, healthy habits such as diet and exercise, and more satisfying, compassionate relationships. Self-compassion includes the capacity to comfort, soothe and validate ourselves, but also to protect and provide for ourselves, and to motivate ourselves to achieve our goals. Fortunately, anyone can learn self-compassion.

En qué consiste la formación de profesores (MSC-TT)

Es importante saber que tienes que haber completado un MSC básico de 8 semanas o MSC intensivo de 24 horas con profesores acreditados oficialmente, antes de poder inscribirte al Teacher Training. Puedes consultar el directorio de profesores acreditados en España en: https://centerformsc.org/find-a-teacher/

El Teacher Training del MSC consiste en un intensivo, 7 días, con formato de programa residencial facilitado por un equipo de profesores senior. La formación de profesores se construye alrededor de las ocho sesiones semanales de MSC: medio día se dedica a una revisión condensada, experiencial de cada una de las sesiones, seguidas de actividades en subgrupos. Dichas actividades están diseñadas para dar oportunidades a los que se están formando a ponerse en el rol de profesores, de forma que van a enseñar temas, guiar prácticas y facilitar el proceso de indagación en la sesión al resto de sus compañeros, con la supervisión directa de cada uno de los profesores Senior. Además, el entrenamiento incluye charlas cortas, ejercicios grupales generales, compartir sobre las prácticas y períodos de silencio. Además, se proporcionará a los participantes los materiales esenciales para enseñar el programa MSC básico de 8 semanas.

El programa MSC se ha estado desarrollando desde el año 2009, y la formación de profesores ha sido iniciada en Estados Unidos, Europa, Asia y Australia desde 2014.
