COMPASSION CULTIVATION TRAINING© Classes


I think being human is about being in the right kind of relationships. I think being human is a process. It’s not something that we just are born with. We actually learn to celebrate our connection, learn to celebrate our love. And the thing about it — if you suffer, it does not imply love. But if you love, it does imply suffering. So part of the thing that I think what being human means — to love and to suffer; to suffer with, though, compassion, not to suffer against. So, to have a space big enough to suffer with, and if we can hold that space big enough, we also will have joy and fun, even as we suffer. And suffering will no longer divide us. And to me, that’s sort of the human journey.

HOW DOES ONLINE COMPASSION CULTIVATION TRAINING© (CCT™) WORK?

Online CCT takes place in real time in a virtual classroom environment and includes:

  • Large and small group discussions to share learning experiences

  • Guided meditation to improve awareness

  • Listening and communication exercises to build compassionate interactions

  • Access to online guided meditations to support a daily practice of developing loving kindness, empathy, and compassion.

  • Practical applications to explore and develop compassionate thoughts and actions in real life

This class is interactive and happens live in a group learning environment. To participate, you will need a quiet location, a reliable internet connection, and a computer or tablet with a webcam and a microphone. If these are not possible, please consider waiting for an in-person class in the future.


CCT classes can be arranged for groups of 8 or more depending on Laura’s availability. Please contact Laura for more information.
