CCT is a multifaceted exploration of how connection and kindness might transform human experience. Originally developed at Stanford University in 2009, CCT draws on both contemplative and scientific approaches to the mind and offers techniques and practices for opening the heart and building courage in the face of adversity. We will meet for 2 hours a week, for 8 weeks, on Zoom. Each class includes meditation practices, informal lecture, group discussion, in-class listening, and communication exercises with partners and small groups. Home practice is a key aspect of the training. Click here for more details.

This course is being offered through the Compassion Institute.

Schedule: Wednesdays at 9:30-11:30am Pacific Time, Oct 23 - Dec 11, 2024
