Wild Precious Life
Mindfulness-Based Compassionate Living - 9-Week Online Course
September - November 2021
with Claire Brejcha
What if self-compassion was the key to YOU living a life of greater happiness, fulfilment, and love?
Over the past decade, an overwhelming amount of evidence has shown that self-compassion is NOT a luxury, but an ESSENTIAL ingredient to good psychological and physical health.
Yet most of us have never been shown to be compassionate and kind towards ourselves, and to make matters worse we have been fed beliefs that to be kind to ourselves is somehow selfish, or will make us lazy.
We may avoid offering care to others for fear of being overwhelmed by their suffering, or we find ourselves becoming exhausted in the process of trying to help.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
The seeds of compassion already lie within you
and you CAN learn to uncover this powerful source to create lasting transformation in your life.
I’m Claire, your guide on the pathway to self-compassion. I wholeheartedly believe in the importance of this work – not only at the individual level, but also because it can foster real transformation in the world.
I love the fact that even with all the inner and outer imperfections we can learn to embrace ourselves and our lives, and grow a deep inner confidence that will support us to thrive, not merely survive.
I bring with me nearly two decades of experience teaching mindfulness-based approaches. And I would love to be your guide to living and loving your one, wild and precious life.
