Karuna Workshop
The Karuna Workshop ® has been specifically designed to enable individuals to catalyse and cultivate an internal organic process that addresses self-destructive behaviour.
The on-going impact of the pandemic has resulted in an increase in self-harm, in addition to related mental and emotional health issues.
The word Karuna comes from the Sanskrit kara, meaning “to do” or “to make,” indicating an action-based form of compassion which in turn leads to taking action to alleviate suffering
Karuna is typically translated as “compassion or self-compassion” in English and is based on the powerful concept developed in the consciousness based spiritual paths.
The Karuna workshops combines time tested ancient wisdom with current science by bringing together contemplative powerful foundational practices known for their profound healing, transformational and positive impact on our self, self-image, self-esteem and wellbeing.
Self-destructive behaviour also known – self-injury, deliberate self-harm, and may include, cutting, swallowing tablets / poisons, burning, hair pulling, scratching or related self-destructive actions. Any behaviour where the intent is to deliberately hurt oneself.

What is Karuna?
Research has shown that self-harm and self-destructive behaviour can be initiated when vulnerable individuals feel they are unable to cope with overwhelming or destructive emotions including stress, anxiety, sadness, loss of control, anger, guilt, shame or self-criticism
The cultivation of Karuna has shown to increases self-esteem, heals emotional trauma and significantly enhances emotional health and wellbeing, in addition to reducing anxiety, stress, and harmful emotional states.
This experiential workshop is grounded in mindfulness and self-compassion integrating practical guidance with psychology, mind-body medicine with current evidence-based understanding and knowledge.
The workshop is intended to help in pragmatic, practical ways, facilitate you in realising and accessing our existing inner resilience and understanding.
