    Appreciate the discussion and the work that you do in self compassion. It’s so extremely difficult to quiet and come to peace with our self-critic! Continuing to practice self compassion can be so helpful for not only ourselves, but also for all others in our world that we directly and indirectly touch.
    Thanks Kristin

    I’m intrigued with the programs you are developing for teachers–MFY program. What are the plans to bring this to teachers who are not able to attend the teacher training?
