About
As we enter the final quarter of 2023, what would you say to yourself when reflecting on the past year? Do you often feel dissatisfied, thinking you haven't met your expectations? When we are accustomed to treating ourselves with harsh criticism, it's easy to feel increasingly discouraged, powerless, and worried.
In this two-hour workshop, our clinical psychologist, Ella, will guide us in reflecting on the past year and learning how to reconstruct our self-critical thoughts in order to foster self-compassion and understanding. Together we will also discover how to extract meaning from moments of perceived inadequacy and failures. This process will enable us to embrace our authentic selves, and view every experience as an opportunity for personal growth and self-discovery.
The event will be held in Cantonese.
