Mindful Self-Compassion Programs at Imagine
Just as with our MBSR Classes, we charge a $90 registration fee PLUS generosity. Our "donations page" explains our philosophy and holds contribution forms.
(Note: you will be registered once you have paid. You will receive two notices, one to thank you for registering and one to acknowledge your payment.)
A testimonial from one of our Fall 2024 participants:
"Self compassion has helped me to be kinder to myself, to be my best and most loyal friend, to forgive and cheer for myself, to celebrate my accomplishments and embrace my difficulties and most importantly to be able to heal and care for myself so that I can hold the difficulty of the people I love, to really be present with them and to let them shine as well."
Our Summer MSC Course finished in July.
Check back for more dates in the future.
Imagine is proud to partner with Modestly Mindful and its founder, Jon Walker.
Modestly Mindful offers online classes on mindfulness and self-compassion for individuals and organizations.
Mindfulness and self-compassion shouldn't be a struggle. You know that mindfulness and self-compassion are important for well-being. But they can easily become just another task; something else to feel bad about because you're not doing it. Jon's goal is to make cultivating these qualities as accessible as possible through online classes for individuals and organizations. For more information about the course itself, you can check out Jon's page.

Most of us feel compassion for our close friends when they are struggling. What would it be like to receive the same caring attention from yourself when you needed it most? All that’s required is a shift in attention—recognizing that as a human being, you, too, are a worthy recipient of compassion. Self-compassion involves the capacity to comfort and soothe ourselves, and to motivate ourselves with encouragement, when we suffer, fail, or feel inadequate. Self-compassion is learned in part by connecting with our innate compassion for others and including ourselves in that circle of compassion. The practice of self-compassion also helps to grow and sustain our compassion for others.
