Letting Go of Perfect

Finding peace with ourself

SAT, January 25 | 11am - 12:30pm

We sometimes set up an 'all or nothing' approach to things. We believe that if we're not able to do something perfectly we've failed, and our actions were wasted effortIn this class we will look at how to let go of perfectionism and nourish positive attitudes of self-acceptance instead. We'll learn to be more skillful and gentle with ourselves, develop real confidence, and the strength to progress towards becoming the person we wish to be.
