Yet somehow your life on paper and your academic life seem to rarely meet. This webinar will introduce how techniques in mindfulness and compassion could be the building blocks to further support locating more room in your calendar, more space in your being, and increased self-kindness to sustain your academic life.

In this webinar, participants will:
•Define how mindfulness is critical as a foundational practice in academic life
•Interpret how to use a 4-part definition of compassion to evaluate action steps in academic life
•Evaluate how lovingkindness (versus self-criticism) is key in cultivating a healthy identity in academic life
•Integrate mindfulness, compassion, and self-compassion as a cycle of self-kindness to sustain academic life
•Develop a self-compassionate narrative when all else “fails” in academic life[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
