“Self-awareness and self-love matter. Who we are is how we lead. ”
-Brené Brown

Thanks to a lot of great research by professors such as Kristin Neff and Brené Brown, we know that positive, life-long changes can occur when we replace our self-critical talk with self-compassionate talk.

But it takes practice, and support. And that's why this annual event exists.

I hope you'll join us for a wholehearted experience in nurturing your body, mind, and spirit.

Why Self-Compassion?

 I started the annual Self-Compassion Mini-retreat in 2016 because learning and practicing it has been transformational in my life, and I wanted to share it's power with others. Especially with those, who like I was at first, might be skeptical and resistant.

It has since become one of the favorite events I offer, and I love gathering with others to remember and deepen this foundational and valuable practice. I really hope you will gift yourself with a day of self-compassion.
