SUMMARY:Midweek Meditation and Talks: Understanding Self-Esteem
DESCRIPTION:“Love yourself.” “Believe in yourself.”These are phrases we often hear as solutions to low self-esteem. \nWhile well intentioned\, they tend to oversimplify a more complex process. \nLow self-esteem is not simply about failing to think positively about ourselves. It is influenced by how we pay attention\, how we interpret our experiences\, and how we relate to our own thoughts and feelings. \nIn this talk\, we will look at what is really going on when self-esteem is low\, and why many common approaches to “boosting” it do not lead to lasting change. \nThe aim is to develop a clearer understanding of these patterns and how they can be approached differently. \nSessions run with a minimum of 5 participants. Confirmation will be sent in advance.

SUMMARY:Midweek Meditation and Talks: Understanding Self-Compassion
DESCRIPTION:Self-compassion is a fundamental human capacity that can lead to meaningful changes in how we relate to ourselves and our lives when it is intentionally cultivated. \nIt is often misunderstood and seen as optional; however\, it plays an important role in wellbeing and in our ability to make sustained changes over time. \nBut what is self-compassion\, exactly? And why does it have such a strong impact? \nIn this self-compassion mini-workshop we will explore these questions and clarify key aspects of self-compassion so it can be understood more clearly and applied in a practical way in everyday life. \nSessions run with a minimum of 5 participants. Confirmation will be sent in advance.

SUMMARY:Unconditional Self-Acceptance Meditation Series — The Inner Critic
DESCRIPTION:This series part of Midweek Meditation and Talks\,  focuses on how we relate to ourselves in the presence of self-criticism\, doubt\, and difficult internal experiences. The aim is not to remove self-judgment\, but to change how you respond to it during practice. \n  \nSession 1: The Inner Critic\nAccepting ourselves is an important step toward living the life we desire. However\, an often unskillful inner voice appears and starts to give opinions about different aspects of our lives\, making things more challenging. \nWhat can we do? This is the focus of the first session. \nNext Session Themes\n\nSession 2: Releasing Self-Blame\nSession 3: Honouring the Body\nSession 4: Recognising Strengths\n\n  \nSessions run with a minimum of 5 participants. Confirmation will be sent in advance.

The aim is not to remove self-judgment\, but to change how you respond to it during practice. \n  \nSession 3: Honouring the Body\nAt times\, our relationship with our body can feel “tense” because we want it to be different—thinner\, taller\, younger\, or something else. There is always something. \nIn this struggle\, we often forget that\, through this body\, we experience love\, laughter\, and the world around us. \nThis session is an opportunity to honour the body. \nNext Session Themes\n\nSession 4: Recognising Strengths\n\n  \nSessions run with a minimum of 5 participants.
