CCA Compassion Community of Practice (CCoP) 12th February 2025
Following the CCA Compassion Retreat Season and the four Compassion Retreat Spaces in September & October, the Compassion Community of Practice (CCoP) will host its fourth monthly meeting for CCA members who wish to join in co-creating an ongoing compassion community of practice.
As highlighted on the CCoP webpage, the purpose of the Compassion Special Interest Pod is to provide a secular Compassion Community of Practice (CCoP) as a way of co-regulating and processing difficult emotions that arise within the Ecological Awareness Cycle. The CCoP serves as both an antidote to empathic distress fatigue and climate-related burnout in the coach, and their clients in turn, and also develops qualities beneficial to the coaching relationship and better coaching outcomes.
