MSC-Mindful Self-Compassion
Mindful Self-Compassion
15 - 20 Juni 2025
A compact course in 5 days with the content of the internationally recognized 8-week course by Dr. Kristin Neff and Dr. Chris Germer. Course instructor: Regula Saner.
In this MSC (Mindful Self-Compassion) training, basic principles and tools are taught that enable participants to face difficult moments in their lives with kindness, care, and understanding. Many people are often harsh and critical with themselves instead of being caring and understanding. In this course, you will learn to approach yourself consciously and benevolently. You will practice mindfulness and connectedness. The training is based on the research of Kristin Neff (Ph.D., University of Texas at Austin) and the expertise of Christopher Germer (Ph.D., clinical psychologist, Harvard Medical School in Boston). Research in psychology and neurology shows that self-compassion can become a habit that leads to a happier and healthier life. Many therapists consider this course as a foundation to incorporate mindfulness and compassion with deep understanding into their work. It is considered one of the requirements for becoming an MSC teacher.
