Many caregivers wonder how to help young children deal skillfully with their difficult feelings and treat themselves with kindness. Each child is unique, and there’s not a one-size-fits-all approach for helping kids grow self-compassion. In this workshop, we will explore how you can customize self-compassion for particular children, including modeling, conversation, and play. You will experience many of the playful activities and metaphors that Jamie Lynn developed for her Mindfulness and Self-Compassion for Children and Caregivers (MSC-CC) program. For instance, you’ll learn how animals can be a gateway for conversations about feelings with kids, and how you can make the components of self-compassion accessible for children. You will leave equipped with effective ideas and creative exercises that will help you support yourself and the young children in your life.
Who can benefit from this workshop? Parents, grandparents, clinicians, social workers and educators of kids. The target age is caregivers of kids 6-12, but the content is also relevant for older and younger children.

A three-hour online workshop by Dr. Kristin Neff, February 15th, sponsored by CMSC.
When most people think of self-compassion, they consider the tender, nurturing aspect of this mindset that allows us to be with our pain and accept ourselves in a supportive way. But self-compassion can be fierce as well as tender.
Fierce self-compassion involves taking action in the world to protect, provide and motivate ourselves to alleviate suffering. It means saying “no” to others who are hurting us – drawing our boundaries firmly. It helps us to take a firm stance against injustice or unfairness without dehumanizing others.
This workshop will focus on the fierce aspect of self-compassion through lecture and experiential exercises. By learning to balance fierce and tender self-compassion, you can begin to speak up, draw boundaries, and stand up for yourself with greater confidence.
The workshop is most relevant for those who already have some experience and knowledge of self-compassion.
