Self Compassion

Join Ed Sipler from SEHSCT for this workshop which looks at how we can turn the kindness and care we show to others inwards.

Compassion is the ability to show empathy, love, and concern to people who are in difficulty. Many people are able to extend compassion toward others but find it difficult to extend the same compassion toward themselves.

It is common that we can be self-critical when we fail, make mistakes or feel inadequate, but giving ourselves the same kindness and compassion we would give a good friend can improve our mental and physical wellbeing and make us more resilient.

Facilitator: Ed Sipler, South Eastern Health & Social Care Trust (SEHSCT)

Date: Wednesday 22nd January 2025

Time: 4.00pm – 5.00pm
