Compassion Based Mindfulness

Joan Flannelly

 

Professor Richie Davidson was asked in the early 80's to study the science of wellbeing by His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama. His research at the Centre for Healthy Mind's has been groundbreaking and concluded with the fundamental fact that as human beings, we do not have the genome for wellness. Wellbeing is a skill we can cultivate and Compassion Based Mindfulness is at the heart of a happy and contented life. The Sanctuary's heartfelt wish is to create a more compassionate, just and kinder society. The change begins with us.

This talk will explore the fundamentals of Compassion Based Mindfulness and how we can incorporate this into our daily lives. The talk will be interactive and experiential and include space for questions and answers.
