A BRIEF INTRO ABOUT THE PROGRAMME & ITS COLLABORATORS

This 2-day programme is initiated through a Compassion project funded by Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU).

This project is a creative collaboration with Dr Judith Enriquez from the School of Education, Ceri Anwen Jones from the School of Nursing, Allied Health of LJMU and Dr Katy Roe, Consultant Clinical Psychologist at Manx Care.

We (Judith, Ceri and Katy) have connected more than two years ago with one united intention to create a space charged with compassion that can regenerate and restore our health, our communities and our Earth.

With the funding support from LJMU, this project is our first attempt to bring into being our intention on compassion. The project explores the experiences of those diagnosed with ME/CFS and long COVID by connecting with our bodies using our breath and hands. If you register for the above sessions, we will get in touch with more detailed information about the project and seek your consent to take part in it. Participation in our study is not a requirement to join any of the sessions. We welcome your presence in any way you would like to show up and engage with our collective intention around compassion.
