Description This course introduces fresh perspectives on mindfulness and self-compassion. Participants will engage in meditative exercises to increasing their awareness of inner mental experiences and build familiarity with how mental states influence behavior. In addition, participants use meditative exercises to direct the stream of compassion within, even when encountering obstacles and disappointment. Together, we will discuss and challenge perspectives on perfection and imperfection, common humanity, suffering, joy, and especially, compassion.

- Define mindfulness and compassion.
- Build meditative skills for stabilizing attention, observing the flow of conscious mental experience, and a realistic and caring regard for oneself.
