What is Mindful-Self-Compassion?
Mindful Self-Compassion is an evidence-based program based on the groundbreaking research of Dr. Kristin Neff and the clinical expertise of Dr. Christopher Germer. It is an emotional skill and a courageous mental attitude that makes us more resilient to stress and gives us the strength to admit our shortcomings. Research shows that self-compassion reduces anxiety and depression and promotes our inner happiness and contentment. By supporting our emotional well-being it thus lays the foundation for healthy and successful further development in our private and professional lives.

Feedback from previous participants of MSC courses

"I've read many books on meditation and attended years of cognitive therapy. While those experiences were very valuable and created a foundation for understanding concepts in this course, this class has impacted me much more profoundly. Nadja and Michael create a safe and encouraging environment to grow compassion that heals and energizes. Each lesson builds upon the next, and their care, thought, and compassion in communicating concepts is stellar. I cannot recommend them enough; it was life-changing."Carol

"I encourage you to take Nadja & Michael’s Mindful Self Compassion course. Their cross cultural influences create a palpable shared authentic human experience. The practices have a special way of opening up your own self awareness. Add their teachings to this and combined you’ll gain clarity and a different perspective to work with. Very helpful guidance on how to incorporate healthy Mindful Self Compassion into your existing care routine. Taking their course is a definite game changer."Stephanie Ashton

"This was a wonderful journey with Nadja and Michael. Their warm-hearted and attentive manner really helped me to open my heart and get involved in the process. I feel that this compassionate inner work is the key to inner peace in life, for which I am deeply grateful. Namasté."Marc Buchholz
