SUMMARY:Cultiver la Compassion\, l’Art de s’Aimer - Atelier avec Hilary McMichael
DESCRIPTION:*Please note\, this weekend workshop is offered in French \n\n\nUne définition de la compassion pourrait s’articuler ainsi : une sensibilité à la souffrance\, tant en nous-même qu’en autrui\, associée à un engagement pour alléger et prévenir cette souffrance. \n\n\n\n\nLa dimension courageuse de la compassion réside dans la volonté d’appréhender la nature et les origines de la souffrance\, qu’elle émane de nous\, des autres\, ou de la condition humaine. Cette bienveillance se déploie dans trois directions: manifester de la compassion envers autrui\, accueillir la compassion d’autrui\, et cultiver une compassion envers notre propre être. \n\n\n\n\nL’autocompassion se présente comme la capacité de nous prodiguer les mêmes douceurs et égards que nous réservons naturellement à un ami cher. \n\n\nOverview \nL’atelier sur la compassion et la pleine conscience est une exploration créative et joyeuse de nouvelles voies de vie. Celle-ci débute en notre for intérieur\, envers cette personne que nous négligeons bien souvent au profit des autres êtres. \nProgressivement\, ce cercle d’amour s’étend jusqu’à reconnaître l’interconnexion qui nous relie à toute chose\, et à se sentir en harmonie avec la vie. \n\n« Si les mots sortent du cœur\, ils vont entrer dans le cœur. » \nRûmi. \n\n\nFormat\nCes ateliers sont expérientiels avec des exercices et des pratiques concrètes. En s’appuyant sur des techniques ancrées dans la compassion et la pleine conscience\, nous apprenons à traverser nos moments de peine et de douleur. Cette approche nous invite à avoir davantage de douceur et à juger moins sévèrement nos imperfections. Ces pratiques autorisent les participants à aborder les moments ardues de leur existence avec bienveillance\, présence et compréhension. La dimension de la mindfulness constitue le point d’entrée pour une prise de conscience approfondie du fonctionnement de notre esprit et de nos habitudes. \n\n\n\n\nPlutôt que d’ignorer votre douleur\, offrez-vous une pause\, une inspiration\, et dites-vous : ” En ce moment\, c’est réellement difficile. Comment puis-je me réconforter et prendre soin de moi ? ” \nL’atelier se déroule dans différents formats. \n\nUne à deux jours en résidentiel\nSix séances de deux heures par semaine en ligne par visio\nDes matinées ou soirées thématiques en ligne par visio\n\n\n\n\nPlus d’infos:\n\n\n\nDate: 13 et 14 juin 2026\, 10.00-17.30\nTarif: 80€\nTarif réduit sur demande\nLieu: Institut Vajra Yogini\, 81500 Marzens\nRenseignements par email : hilary.educationuniverselle@gmail.com\nPour plus d’informations et pour les réservations\, veuillez consulter: https://educationuniversellefrance.fr/compassion/ \n\n\n\nFacilitatrice\n\nHilary McMichael: Anglaise d’origine\, méditerranéenne de cœur\, je suis investie dans les programmes d’Éducation Universelle depuis 2009\, d’abord en tant que traductrice des enseignantes venues de pays anglo-saxons\, ensuite comme formatrice. Je facilite désormais les 16 Attitudes ainsi que les Méthodes de Transformative Mindfulness (la Pleine Conscience Transformative) ainsi qu’un programme sur la compassion. Je suis aussi formatrice qualifiée pour enseigner le cycle MBSR (la réduction du stress et la gestion des émotions par la pleine conscience) de Jon Kabat-Zinn. J’aime beaucoup enseigner et partager ces pratiques avec des groupes et en session individuelle. La pleine conscience de notre corps\, de notre respiration et de notre esprit nous permet d’être mieux physiquement et mentalement. Ces programmes nous donnent des outils pratiques pour nous transformer. \nMa première passion de la peinture et du dessin\, (diplômée par l’École Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Montpellier) est devenue un moyen d’expression qui rassemble ma créativité et ma vie spirituelle. \nJardinière et randonneuse\, ma philosophie de vie m’amène vers la sobriété heureuse et joyeuse\, faite de valeurs d’accompagnement\, de paix et de confiance.
