Exploring Compassion
Saturday, March 10 1:15 - 4 pm with Zesho Susan O’Connell Conference Center, 308 Page Street Compassion is not what we think it is. It comes in all shapes and styles—it is soft, it is hard, it is bright, it is dull. In our workshop we will look at some film clips that give examples of different applications of compassion, share our own stories of appropriate and inappropriate compassionate actions, and become more aware of the ways we can support the arising of truly helpful, heartfelt, fearless, healing compassion in our lives.
