MMI - Self-compassion workshop - Wolverhampton

RCVS Mind Matters

The Mount Hotel Country Manor

<h3><strong>This course is part of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Mind Matters Initiative and is open to all members of the veterinary team.</strong></h3><h3></h3><p>Underneath most high functioning, perfectionist individuals is an inner critic. Self-criticism and perfectionism are inter-dependent. The latter fuels the previous and vice versa. </p><p>For many people, self-criticism is both a gift and a curse. At its best, it motivates you to be the best version of yourself and enables you to achieve great things. At it worst, it triggers anxiety because the prospect of making mistakes or performing below standards (mainly self-imposed) is deemed as unacceptable. Long term, persistent anxiety could lead to depression — creating a vicious circular pattern between self-criticism, perfectionism, anxiety, and depression. </p><p>This workshop focuses on the clinical utility of self-compassion in mental health. You will learn practical strategies on how to tap into this internal resource that is an important resilience factor to commonly reported difficulties in the veterinary industry such as depression, anxiety and burnout. </p><p></p>
