Hi I’m Gina! Therapist, avid learner and educator. I’ve spent time in many settings, ranging from mental hospitals to jails and schools, immersing myself in situations that require both survival and compassion.
The topic for the upcoming episode of the Self-Compassion series is Self-Compassion and the Other! Some questions inspiring this episode are: What’s the best way to be present for others and also have mercy for yourself? How can we measure when to prioritize our own self-care?
In this series we extensively explore holding and retaining Self-Compassion in the presence of and in relation to Others: both strangers and those in the more intimate circle.
In this episode, we are excited to explore questions and philosophies around:
- What is the nature of judgment? How do we experience the truth of another?
- What are some way to carve out space alone and what are some techniques for effective self-inquiry?
- Is our sense of self completely intertwined with the closest people in our life? How do we define interdependence?
This event will not be recorded, no screenshots will be taken and dialogue will be held in a safe space!
