Practicing Compassion: A Personal Retreat
"Practicing Compassion: A Personal Retreat" is for anyone who wants to deepen their capacity to respond to difficult people, divisive issues, and destructive emotions from a more graceful place. The event will be led by author and veteran retreat leader Mark Yaconelli, based on his work as co-founder of the Center for Engaged Compassion. The day will include a combination of presentation, contemplative exercises, and group discussion. The retreat will feature a morning conversation with author Anne Lamott on the inner work of compassion.
Retreat participants will increase their ability to receive compassion, cultivate skills for practicing self-compassion, and learn how to identify and transform difficult emotions. The event is ideal for parents, teachers, spouses, social workers, nonprofit leaders, activists, and anyone who wants to increase their capacity to heal suffering in self, others, and the world.
Sponsored by United Way of Jackson County and Rogue Valley Manor.
