Content/program

How can we deal with difficult situations in everyday life?

How can we let go of stressful feelings in order to live the life that truly reflects who we are?

We often lose ourselves in worry and planning, in our judgements of others and ourselves. We try to meet constant demands and solve problems. We forget how much we long to be loving, warm-hearted and open. When we pause and become present in the moment, we can open ourselves up to what is going on inside us – to the constantly changing flow of sensations, feelings and thoughts. This enables us to live our moments clearly and with self-compassion.


In this course, for example, the RAIN self-help method will be a tool we can use to arrive in the present moment. The practice of mindful self-compassion supports the development of kindness, understanding and care towards ourselves – especially in difficult moments of life. With physical exercises and guided meditations, it also opens a path to inner healing and freedom. We discover a place of warmth where we can replenish our inner reserves and feel connected to the heart.


Course content:

  • Introduction to the topic
  • Meditation as a source of strength
  • Physical exercises
  • Various meditation techniques on the topic and practice
  • Meditation in everyday life
  • Exchange


The aim of the course is to enable you to use the various tools of self-compassion to independently manage your own well-being and inner happiness. You are your own best friend.
