Thursday, January 15, 4:30 - 5:30pm, via Zoom
Join us for a one-hour introduction to Compassion Cultivation Training. It will give you an idea of the benefit of making an 8-week commitment to CCT, a transformative program that helps rewire your neuropathways while giving a solid ground for building loving-kindness and compassion in your daily life. CCT is completely secular, based on universal human values. This program gives many tools for making your life and relationships more fulfilling.
CCT supports your own health, happiness, and well-being. Research suggests that by increasing self-compassion CCT can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, and enhance connections with others. CCT was developed by Thupten Jinpa (principal English translator for His Holiness the Dalai Lama) at Stanford University with a team of contemplative scholars, clinical psychologists, and researchers.
Hundreds of people have benefitted from CCT through DGCEC. Please REGISTER for the Zoom link HERE or call 502-614-5616.
The Next full CCT Class: 8 Thursdays, Jan 29 to Mar 19, 4:30-6:30pm, via Zoom
NOTE: CCT involves a daily guided meditation. A commitment to practicing between meetings and attending all 8 sessions is strongly recommended to gain the full benefits of the process.
