The first step toward improving relationships with others and making a positive impact in communities is developing an increased level of personal well-being. A greater degree of inner calm, self-control, emotional intelligence, and self-compassion benefits oneself, while also providing a firm foundation upon which to build pro-social skills. CIT will provide you with a safe space for self-exploration with a focus on progress, not perfection. It will meet you where you are, regardless of where you are, teach you skills for self-awareness and self-compassion, and provide you with gentle guidance on your personal journey. The skills learned in CIT will have a ripple effect through your personal and professional life. Skills: Calming Body and Mind, Ethical Mindfulness, Emotional Awareness, and Self-Compassion.
