Event Description

Our human compassion binds the one to the other - not in pity or patronizingly, but as human beings who have learnt how to turn our common suffering into hope for the future. - Nelson Mandela

Join us at Eurasia Coffee & Tea on September 10th to sip coffee, make friends, & explore the topic of compassion, and why it is so incredibly important to feel for each other.

For years, leaders and researchers have been studying compassion as a trait and a tool. It turns out, compassion, empathy, and inter-dependence are all features integral to thriving communities and healthy individuals. Find out more about cultivating these strengths within yourself and teaching them to your community with speakers Colleen Kirk and Kate Alsup.

Come join us! Bring your notebook, because there is going to be a couple great presentations and a lot of interesting discussion. We will also have a Q&A and offer a door prizes from a local business!

You'll hear from the following speakers:
