The Art of Self-Compassion with Chronic Pain

8 CE Credits. Loving a hurting body is not easy. When things are rough, kindness and compassion can soften that experience. For many of us, however, being compassionate to ourselves is challenging, especially when we struggle with chronic pain. Throughout this series you will learn how to use the tools of self-compassion to help your brain and nervous system counterbalance their autopilot modes around pain. Together, we’ll explore the latest research on pain and self-compassion and combine it with ancient wisdom and compassion teachings.
