Be Kind to Yourself – Overcome Self Criticism
Meditation Workshop
@ Burnley KBC
Saturday 7 March, 2pm – 5pm
In-person & Livestream
Let go of critical minds that cause unhappiness, guilt and negativity. Learn instead to use meditation to think in ways that uplift your mind and make you feel happy, strong and confident.
Often we can be our own harshest judge. Self critical thoughts and guilty minds often arise from having very high expectations of ourselves which are almost impossible to reach and as a result can lead to us beating ourselves up when we don’t live up to them. These states of mind never help us to become a better or more effective person, in fact they prevent us from becoming the person we have the potential to be.
In this meditation workshop we will learn how to accept ourselves, how to develop more realistic and beneficial expectations of ourselves, and how to be kind to ourselves .
This course is suitable for everyone from complete beginners to experienced meditators.
Refreshments are available in our World Peace Café during the course.
The cost of the Meditation Workshop is £16 (Monthly Members £5, FP Monthly Members £0).
Our monthly membership programme offers access to all our weekly classes as well as discounts on courses for only £20 per month – Learn more.
