12 Feb 2023 – Love – Mindful Self-Compassion Workshop

Love – Mindful Self-Compassion Workshop

with Bridgeen Rea-Kaya from Immeasurableminds.co.uk

Sunday 12 February 2023

2-4pm

£25

Please book via www.immeasurableminds.co.uk

This month’s workshop theme is aptly ‘love’. Love for self and others including writing a ‘love letter’ – please a pen and paper with you.

Take some time out for your wee self. These practices I offer are all about increasing how well we love ourselves and others. PLUS a unique opportunity to connect in person with other local like minded people. Sharing in circle is part of the class and part of the healing that can happen in the class.

We will start the workshop with some polyvagal tuning to regulate our nervous systems and facilitate space for true rest and healing. Because it’s the Christmas season I will be offering the ever popular chocolate meditation! If you have any allergies etc – please bring your own treat to practice with 

After the May workshop participants texted me to say things like “thank you so much for yesterday, it was so nice to meet you and I have to say that my mind is a lot quieter today.” “Great afternoon, my son loved it.” “I loved it! so nice to practice in person again”

Places are limited due to the limited number of chairs available in the centre. So if your interested book asap. Please bring your own yoga mat and blanket for the deep relaxation.

Mindful self-compassion is the foundation of emotional healing—being aware in the present moment when we’re struggling with feelings of inadequacy, despair, confusion, and other forms of stress (mindfulness) and responding with kindness and understanding (self-compassion). Mindful self-compassion also means holding difficult emotions—fear, anger, sadness, shame and self-doubt—and ourselves, in loving awareness, leading to greater ease and well-being in our daily lives.

Mindful self-compassion can be learned by anyone. It’s the practice of repeatedly evoking good will toward ourselves especially when we’re suffering—cultivating the same desire that all living beings have to live happily and free from suffering. And as the Dalai Lama says, self-compassion is the first step toward compassion for others.

This half-day retreat is suitable for everyone from complete beginners to experienced practitioners. It’s fun, practical and experiential.

It is possible to buy a ticket as a gift, the person just needs to give the name the ticket was booked under when they check in with me on the day.

Thank you, I look forward to seeing you.

Once purchased tickets are not transferable or refundable. Thank you for understanding.
