Hi All,
Just to say a big thank you to everyone who attended and participated in our inaugural FCMA workshop ‘Radically Embodied Compassion’ in Derby last Friday. We had an absolute blast, we sincerely hope you enjoyed and found it useful too.
The day was action-packed, moving from the theory and empirical research underpinning the FCMA approach to cultivating and radically embodying compassion via static and dynamic stance work, guards/blocks and partner drills. For us, it was a joy to see people courageously (and playfully!) participating in the exercises and experience radically embodied compassion for themselves, including simulating how this might feel and transfer to therapeutic encounters.
Much gratitude to the Compassionate Mind Foundation (especially Hannah Gilbert) for agreeing to host the workshop and begin to spread the FCMA ‘Way’.
Watch this space for future workshops!
Warmest Wishes,
Neil and Syd
