EDUA 5020 - Self-Compassion and Dignity Course uri icon

Overview

description

  • This course focuses on developing concepts of dignity and self-compassion and teaches leaders to apply self-compassion as an antidote for burnout and as a resource for well-being and positive relationships. Educators will imagine ways of developing self-compassion that can help them practice leadership daily. They will construct affirmations that facilitate self-compassion in difficult situations, including situations of social suffering (e.g., racism) that affect all people, but are experienced differently by different persons.
