COURSE
Becoming Self-Compassionate
With Elizabeth Pyjov
In this series, created by Elizabeth Pyjov, you will learn to be self-compassionate or deepen your self-compassion in new ways. Some of the topics we will address: · How does self-compassion impact the body and brain? · Why does self-compassion increase levels of energy, ignite creativity, and help protect from burnout? · How is self-compassion different from self-indulgence or self-esteem? · How can we cultivate self-compassion on a daily basis? After this program, your inner experience will feel more like confidence and warmth.

There are problems with the audio in this course (background sounds, lessons seemingly cut off). In addition, it was not quite what I was looking for (which was a series of self compassion focused meditation rather than breathing exercises, poems, etc.), which of course is a personal preference but I am noting in case others are looking for something similar.

It was short but I learned very important notions on self compassion.

I could not understand every word. Sentences begin clearly, then speed up at the end with words being swallowed. Uneven though what was said was worthwhile. Then, I couldn’t do the 8th session. Somehow thought I had heard it. I had not and could not go back to it. Very strange

This course has wonderful content. I highly recommend it. The only feedback/change I would ask for in the next course is to speak a little bit more slowly and articulate a little bit more. Thank you! And thanks for bringing this lovely content ❤️

Great insights. I just recommend listening with headphones as it’s hard to understand or hear voice. To the guide: I hope you can record with a mic or have a quiet space to speak with more confidence. It just sounds a bit quick or mumbling at times. -chronic mumbler
