Saturday 8 August 2026 Workshop

Awakening and nurturing
the compassionate self

 

Venue: Dunfermline Wholeness Centre

Address :Music Hall Lane, Dunfermline KY12 7LW

 

We’re often told to be kind to ourselves — but very few of us know what that actually means, or where to begin.

More often, self-criticism and self-judgement are the default,

and they get in the way of any real kindness toward ourselves.

This day of practice is about recognising our compassionate self, and learning how to support and nurture it as an ongoing way of being — not just an idea.

We’ll work with meditation, gentle movement, small group sharing, and writing exercises.

Really beneficial to support my mental health!

Bill's teaching is soulful and gentle to the mind and healing to the body. I like his range of personal reflections and authentic sharing to bring alive issues and encourage me to reflect deeper and heal.

I found Bill to be a skilled teacher, calmly and with care taking the group through each step, making it understandable and practical.

I love Bill’s teachings. I always feel comfortable, valued, and accepted. I feel like his courses are a kind of connection to a Sangha, and being amongst like minded people is amazing. He organises excellent venues, if sometimes a little cold! I feel like I can speak, be heard, and contribute openly without feeling too self conscious. More importantly, I can hear the experience and opinions of others and that helps my learning and understanding immensely. I am on a journey (and probably will be forever!) but Bill’s workshops help me to stay on track and facilitate my journey.

Really enjoyed the ‘workshop’ format, being able to engage and share experiences and reflections with different members of the group. The teaching part was so enlightening; it helped me to reflect on what’s going on for me and ways I might reframe my responses to my thoughts and actions.

It was a fab day, I was able to learn about myself and have connections with like minded people.
