About the Webinar:

Compassion is how you respond in the face of someone’s suffering, including your own. Educators can experience compassion fatigue as they care for students experiencing difficulties expressing their emotions in healthy and productive ways. Compassion fatigue can affect school communities and cause friction between staff and students, amongst colleagues and between staff and administration. Building compassion takes practice and can lead to many positive benefits including stronger communities. In this webinar, participants will learn the benefits of a practice of mindful compassion on wellbeing, how to practice mindful compassion to cultivate strong school communities, and how to practice self-compassion to enhance resiliency and combat compassion fatigue.

Webinar Objectives:

• Identify the benefits of a practice of mindful compassion and self-compassion on the wellbeing of self and school community.
• Learn 3 self-compassion exercises to enhance personal wellbeing.
• Learn 3 mindful compassion exercises to build a strong, compassionate school community.
