Nurturing the Compassionate Heart: Moving Beyond the Inner Critic

This retreat offered an opportunity to explore ways to nourish and support the cultivation of compassion toward ourselves and others, and to understand what can get in the way. In particular, we will contemplate how the inner critic – a judgmental and demeaning inner voice – can reinforce feelings of shame and doubt, impact on our relationships, and affect our capacity to trust and be open.
