Lunch & Learn: ‘Love the One You’re With’

Self-compassion—developing a positive, healthy, and kind relationship with oneself—is the focus of the next Lunch & Learn presentation, scheduled for Wednesday, November 16, at noon on the California campus in the Keck Amphitheater. The session will be streamed live to the Florida campus, room B158, at 3 PM. The series is sponsored by the Scripps Research Counseling and Psychological Services Department.

The session is designed to help individuals who are generous with friends, family, and coworkers, but demanding, critical, and impatient with themselves, said presenter Daphne Lurie, Counseling and Psychological Services director.

According to Lurie, the presentation will explore

The difference between self-compassion and self-esteem
The three core components of self-compassion
Exercises to deepen an individual’s capacity for self-compassion
