“Compassion is one of

the few things we can

practice that will bring

immediate and long-

term happiness to our

lives... The kind that

sticks.” 
 

​― His Holiness the Dalai Lama
"Genuine, accessible, humble, kind. I recommend others take this training with Roy." ​
In 2008 the Dalai Lama contributed $150,000 to Stanford University to launch research bringing contemplative practice and modern science together for programs to help the world become a more compassionate place. Compassion Cultivation Training was the result of this historic collaboration. Now you can take this ground- breaking training from your own home.
Compassion Cultivation Training  is an eight-week course for developing greater compassion and kindness toward oneself and others.  Created by a team of contemplative scholars, clinical psychologists, and researchers at the  Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education  (CCARE) at Stanford University School of Medicine, together  with the support of the Dalai Lama,   

WHY CULTIVATE COMPASSION?
Scientific studies suggest that a kind and compassionate attitude can greatly reduce the distress we feel in difficult situations and become a profound personal resource in times of stress. Through instruction and the interactive nature of the processes incorporated in this course, you will have opportunities to cultivate new ways in which to access, recognize, and strengthen compassion and empathy − as a default response to the ever-present challenges that characterize our human experience.

WHO PARTICIPATES IN CCT©?
CCT© is a valuable tool for parents, caregivers, educators, healthcare professionals, therapists, executives, and people in professions and life contexts in which compassion is called upon — namely, most everybody!

WHAT DOES CCT© CONSIST OF?
  • Daily meditation practices for loving kindness, empathy, and compassion.
  • 2HR Weekly Classes including lecture, discussion, meditation, and in-class exercises.
  • Real-life “Homework” Assignments to practice compassionate thoughts and actions.
  • Open, supportive discussion with your teachers and fellow students.
