Get Ready to Hold Some Space

Common humanity is what allows us to feel connected to people who live different lives from us- separated by distance, language, or political lines, we can still find a way to connect as humans. 

When we work with compassion as a guiding principle, we learn to open our hearts and minds to our communities and people around us. 

Join Compassion Institute Founding Faculty Erika Rosenberg, PhD. Tuesday, September 1st at 12pm Pacific Time. She will take you through a free 30-minute meditation to help you find this connection.
