Cultivating Compassion (for Self and Others) Through Mindfulness and Journaling

It can be hard to understand and even have conversations with people who think differently than we do. Sometimes, too, our most challenging relationship can be the one we have with ourselves.

One of the things that can allow us to walk through the world with more equanimity is cultivating a sense of compassion, for ourselves, and for others. Holding compassion in our hearts can create a doorway to more thoughtful communication and connection.

Numerous studies have shown that mindful meditation and speech, as well as expressive writing, can have physiological and emotional benefits that can enhance wellbeing and reduce stress. These practices can also benefit those around us; when we are more open and relaxed, we can have a positive ripple effect on those around us.

In this two-hour experiential workshop, learn some practical techniques to help you find compassion for yourself and others you may come into conflict with. You will learn about mindful communication and practice some writing and meditation techniques to help you tap into your own sources of wisdom.

Your guides for this workshop are Stephanie Lewis, a certified mindfulness instructor and national board-certified health & wellness coach as well as owner of LiveWellFlow, and Pam McFarland, a certified expressive writing facilitator and owner of Dragonfly Creative, LLC, a small business offering workshops that use artistic expression as a path to self-knowledge and healing.
