How can we learn to be kinder to ourselves, especially in difficult times?

Self-care isn't selfish, it's essential. It involves learning to treat ourselves like we would a good friend. Rather than continually judging ourselves, we can show ourselves kindness as imperfect humans and learn to cope better with the inevitable struggles of life.

At this special live event Dr Kristin Neff will share how we can make helpful changes to build our resilience and cope better in hard times - not because we’re selfish, but because we genuinely care about ourselves as well as others. She will also focus on the benefits of being part of a wider community of people learning and helping each other to do this.

This live Action for Happiness event was recorded with Dr Mark Williamson on the 23rd July 2024.
