Fierce Compassion: Creating Safety in the Midst of Horror

Presenter: Catherine Quiring, MA, LMHC, Guest Speaker.  The Christmas story is one of fierce compassion and love. It is set against a backdrop of empire, violence, and genocide, which may feel all too familiar to us today. The legacy of Rabbi Jesus and his birth story is one of fierce compassion, and creating safety in the midst of harsh reality. We’ll explore how to identify if a space is emotionally safe, how to create more safety for yourself internally and externally, and how to develop fierce compassion.
