About The Self-Compassion Daily Journal:
Many people find it challenging or even uncomfortable to embrace and accept themselves with kindness. But it’s encouragement—not criticism—that will help you build the flexibility and strength you need to make positive, meaningful change.
The Self-Compassion Daily Journal provides a safe place to tune in and learn to care for yourself so that you can effectively respond to life’s challenges. Grounded in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and compassion-focused therapy (CFT) you will learn to let go of self-criticism—whether it’s about body image, career goals, or parenting—and instead cultivate kindness and forgiveness toward yourself.
Self-compassion is an essential first step toward a fulfilling life. With this journal, you will gain the skills needed to face your inner struggles, find contentment, and take action toward a heart-centered life.

Meditation + Talk: The Future of Wise Leadership Is Up to Us with Dr. Diana Hill
2024-07-03 18:00 - 19:30 | Online
Wednesday Meditations: Free Weekly Talks and Meditations with Dr. Rick Hanson. Diana Hill offers a meditation and talk on the topic of “The Future of Wise Leadership Is Up to Us.“

In this talk and meditation, guest teacher Dr. Diana Hill explores 7 principles to grow our wise collective leadership.

Every day, everyone—including you—has the capacity to make a profound and lasting impact on the lives of others and the world around you. Wise leadership—rooted in humility, values, and genuine concern for others—is what can uplift, energize, and inspire us, even during the most challenging times.

In The Art of Power, Thich Nhat Hanh emphasized that the Sangha is our future leader. If you feel uncertain about the future of leadership, lean on and invest in community. We can create collective leadership that is aware, inclusive, kind, and wiser together.

We all have different values, different histories, and different issues around moving our bodies. But no matter our psychological obstacles, those bodies all need to move! The most successful movers are those who are able to align their values with a healthy diet of movement. This participatory workshop with co-authors Diana Hill and Katy Bowman will help you identify your deepest movement values and put them to work! You’ll leave with 2 or 3 key values and clear methods for using those values to steer clear of your familiar excuses toward better movement health and set your compass toward movement.

Ticket: $35 (for workshop). Tickets are not required for the book signing.

We all have different values, different histories, and different issues around moving our bodies. But no matter our psychological obstacles, those bodies all need to move! The most successful movers are those who are able to align their individual values with movement. But what are your values? Could you list them?

This dynamic workshop with psychologist Dr. Diana Hill and biomechanist Katy Bowman, M.S. will help you identify your deepest values, connect them to movement and put them to work!

You’ll leave with a few key values, three “core moves” and clear methods for using your values to bust through familiar excuses we can all relate to.

Come dressed to write and move!

Ground-sitting/writing time will be peppered with workshop exercises that will have you connecting to your values with some playful, physical embodiment. Come spend an hour with Diana and Katy and leave with your movement “north” so you can reorient yourself to physical activity in various ways and settings that work for and are meaningful to YOU.

The workshop will be followed by a book signing with Diana and Katy signing their new book, “I Know I Should Exercise, But…”

ACT BootCamp: The Premier 4-Day Training in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy

Back by popular demand:

The most advanced training in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy.

Offered only a few times per year, and only live in-person, the ACT Bootcamp is a 4-day skills-based experiential learning that will fully prepare you to apply ACT in a variety of clinical settings.

The best part is that, as a process-based approach to therapy, it can stand on its own or provide a foundation that can be integrated with ANY approach you already use– whether you practice DBT, EMDR, CBT, or IFS….

….And it can provide a highly practical framework for exactly what to focus on in treatment regardless of what symptoms or diagnoses your clients may have – from anxiety and depression to complex PTSD and more.

This is your chance to work directly with the co-developer of ACT, Steven C. Hayes, one of the most cited psychologists in the world, along with three of the world’s leading ACT Trainers, Robin Walser, Diana Hill, and Miranda Morris.

This 4-day experience is designed to welcome new and advanced practitioners, guiding you in the practical application of ACT with a variety of clients and cases. You’ll see just how ACT and process-based approaches can fit into any therapy practice to help you master:

Exactly what change processes (not symptoms) to target in therapy

How to adapt the tools you already use, including CBT, DBT, IFS, and more, to create a new and flexible approach for every client

How to track your client’s progress on the things that matter most to them

This premier, live in-person training experience is not available anywhere online. It’s never been filmed and will not be available as an online course.

There is simply no better place to experience how to use Acceptance & Commitment Therapy from start to finish than ACT Bootcamp.

Due to the experiential nature of this training, we are limiting registration, and we fully expect this in-person only training to sell out. So REGISTER TODAY to take advantage of this rare and exclusive training experience.

Highly driven people often drive themselves right off course. Wise Effort is how they get back on track. Join clinical psychologist, leadership coach, and creator of the Wise Effort method Diana Hill, Ph.D., for an inspiring immersion into what it means to put your genius energy where it belongs—on the things that give your life meaning.

The Wise Effort method blends psychology, mindfulness, and embodied leadership to help you realign with your wisest self. Through this course, you’ll learn to:

follow curiosity toward work that uses your fullest talents

deepen connection with the people who matter most

honor your body through nourishing movement and self-acceptance

contribute with purpose to the communities that shape you

ignite creativity to make what truly matters

Participants will leave with practical tools to unhook from the thoughts and patterns that keep them stuck, and to redirect their energy with clarity and intention.

Wise Effort isn’t about doing more—it’s about living aligned. It’s about knowing who you are, and offering your gifts with passion and generosity. Once you begin, the way you work, love, and live will never feel the same.

This event will be hosted in our third-floor workshop space, which is only accessible by stairs.
