Wednesday, 29 July at 4pm. This talk will be recorded.
Many of us know that self-compassion is meant to be good for our wellbeing. But what does it really mean? Why is it so difficult? And won’t we be less effective if we stop being hard on ourselves?
In this talk, coach and psychologist Heather Parker of Mind & Co will answer these questions by exploring what research has to say about the benefits of self-compassion, why it doesn’t come naturally to us, and how we can develop it.
