Self-compassion provides resilience, allowing us to acknowledge unmet needs and motivate ourselves with kindness. It cultivates a courageous attitude that stands up to self-criticism, self-denial, or self-absorption.
The three key components of self-compassion are self-kindness, a sense of common humanity, and mindful awareness. Program activities include meditation, experiential exercises, group discussion, and home practices.

The history of our relationships reveals the inner landscape of our being. From such a history we can review our beliefs about life, love, sexuality, connection, and trust. If we are willing to look at ourselves honestly, with compassion and a sense of curiosity, it can be surprising what’s there to discover.

Monthly Pathwork Virtual Study Group Sunday 3-4:30p EST
With Kimberly Middleton, Pathwork Helper
Using The Undefended Self – Living the Pathwork by Susan Thesenga. A small group of interested people meet monthly to go through the book together. There are practices at the end of each chapter. Some we will do together, but most of them are useful to consider and work on your own. You will need a copy of the book.
“I read The Undefended Self years ago when I was in the transformation program. This time I’m listening to the online lectures and enjoying attending the study group to help me think more deeply about the concepts again.”
