February 14, 2026
10:00 - 12:00
What if you could literally change your brain to be kinder to yourself? This science-based, experiential workshop explores the fascinating neuroscience behind self-compassion and reveals how our inner dialogue directly shapes our mental and physical wellbeing.
Through an engaging blend of brain science, mindful movement, and heart-opening practices, you’ll discover how to transform your relationship with yourself from the inside out. The Science of (Self-) Compassion combines cutting-edge research with practical tools, showing you how self-compassion isn’t just “nice to have”—it’s neurologically essential for resilience, healing, and authentic connection.
Using elements of non-violent communication, gentle yoga, breathwork, and reflective practices, this interactive workshop creates a safe space to explore what true self-love looks like in action. You’ll learn evidence-based techniques that help rewire patterns of self-criticism and cultivate the inner ally you’ve always deserved.
What You’ll Discover in This Transformative Session:
– The Brain Science: Understand what happens neurologically during self-criticism versus self-compassion, and why kindness literally rewires your brain
– Inner Communication: Learn non-violent communication principles to transform your internal dialogue from judgment to acceptance
– Embodied Self-Care: Practice gentle yoga poses (asanas) and breathing techniques that support nervous system regulation and self-nurturing
– Compassion Mantras: Explore powerful practices for both receiving support (“I suffer, please help”) and offering it (“I know you suffer, I’m here for you”)
– Integration Tools: Engage in journaling and group activities that help anchor these new patterns into daily life
This workshop weaves together movement, reflection, and connection, creating multiple pathways for learning and integration. Whether you struggle with perfectionism, imposter syndrome, or simply want to develop a more loving relationship with yourself, you’ll leave with practical, science-backed tools for lasting change.
Perfect for anyone ready to move beyond self-criticism and embrace the transformative power of authentic self-compassion.
