Training for educators, parents, and other caregivers

The Path to Resilience for Parents and Educators
*Available for 2 graduate level professional development semester credits for educators for an additional fee

Our fun and engaging foundations class incorporates mindfulness, emotional intelligence, self-compassion and growing the good. This class will get you started on the path to a healthier mind and a happier life.  This training includes additional components exclusively designed for parents and educators.


"This class provided me with more resources and ideas to use when I'm unsure of how to interact with my kids.  Even more important, the group helped me realize that I am a human, just like all other parents, and that I WILL do things imperfectly and I CAN actually be kind to myself when I'm imperfect.  I believe that modeling to my children how to be self-compassionate when I'm imperfect will help them grow up with better emotional health."   -Laura from Fairfax, VA

Compassionate Presence:
Parent & Educator component of Self-Compassion training *
*Available for one graduate level professional development semester credit for educators for an additional fee

  • Compassionate Presence training  is designed to be taken concurrently or after completing Mindful Self-Compassion training.  This training addresses the 4 "S's" of attachment: seen, safe, soothed, and secure.  The course explores the relationship between a caregiver's level of self-compassion and the level of self-compassion in youth.  Caregivers learn how they can best cultivate self-compassion both within themselves and with the children they serve.
  • This course features an exclusive interview with Chris Germer (co-developer of Mindful Self-Compassion) on shame and self-compassion for parents and educators
