Join Bespoke Mental Health Canada on Friday November 1st 2024 at 10.00 a.m. -1.30 p.m. (PT), 1.00 p.m – 3.30 p.m. (ET) for a half day workshop delivered by Dr Paul Gilbert
Can’t attend on that date? Just book to watch it ‘on-demand’ at a time that suits you. Available to watch for one year from event (i.e., until November 1st 2025).
This half-day workshop will outline interventions and processes of training for developing compassionate mind states and competencies (Gilbert and Simos, 2020). It will provide an overview of the range of practices and interventions such as breathing practices that stimulate the vagus, a range of different visualizations and meditations, exploration of compassionate reasoning, and compassionate behaviour, some of which are guided by understanding the physiological underpinnings of caring compassion. Particularly, important is for clients to begin to understand how to create an inner sense of a secure base and safe haven that counteracts (among other things) shame and self-criticism which they can turn into when distressed and also utilize as a source of encouragement and guidance. These are related to the compassionate self, mind and the compassionate image.
Bespoke Mental Health Canada is approved by the Canadian Psychological Association to offer continuing education for psychologists. Participants who complete this workshop (either live or on-demand) are eligible to receive 3 CE credits.
