Anxiety and chronic worry are major sources of suffering that conventional medicine has, at best, a mixed track record in treating. For thousands of years, global wisdom traditions have held that training the mind and cultivating compassion can be highly effective in helping people face their fears, and a growing body of scientific research supports that view. This workshop with an expert in “Compassion-Focused Therapy” draws from cutting-edge neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, and Buddhist mindfulness methods to teach us innovative, evidence-based meditation, as well as visualization and cognitive re-framing techniques designed to increase our emotional strength and psychological flexibility. You will leave this workshop equipped with an array of powerful new tools and healing perspectives that will permit you to move beyond anxiety and live with renewed meaning, purpose, and vitality.
