Knowing What To Do Isn't The Same As
Knowing How To Do It.

You can understand why you're triggered and still struggle when something hurts.

You can know what compassion is and still find yourself criticizing yourself, shutting down,
or trying to make your pain disappear.

Understanding compassion is important. But experiencing it is what helps you begin living it.

THE OLD WAY

  • Learn about compassion without knowing how to practicing it.

  • Feeling responsible for making other people's pain go away.

  • Try to manage, avoid, or fix your pain with no relief.

THE NEW WAY

  • Experience compassion and practice applying it with support.

  • Learn to become aware, listen to your pain, and respond with comfort.

  • Be present with others without needing to fix them.

THE SOLUTION

12 WEEKS TO LEARN IT, EXPERIENCE IT, AND KNOW HOW TO APPLY IT.

The Compassion School brings together live teaching, demonstrations, group consulting, and opportunities to practice with others.

I want you to have the moment when it begins to click.

When compassion stops being something you have to think your way through and starts becoming something you know how to do when you need it.

Your 12 Week Compassion School Experience

For 12 weeks, we'll meet live for two hours each week to learnThe Compassion Method™,
experience it for ourselves, and practice using it with others.

LEARN THE METHOD

Work through the six Compassion Method™ modules using the Essence course. Discover why you react the way you do when you're hurting and what's happening underneath your pain.

EXPERIENCE COMPASSION

Explore your own pain, ask questions, and practice receiving the care and comfort you need. Learn how to respond to yourself with compassion instead of criticism when something hurts.

WATCH & PRACTICE

Watch me demonstrate mini Compassion Method sessions, then practice with others during our Practice Nights. See how the different parts of the method work together and begin building confidence in using them yourself.

GROW TOGETHER

Receive feedback, participate in group mentoring, and learn alongside others on the same journey. Bring your questions and discoveries so we can talk through what you're learning and experiencing together.

What Happens When You Stop Fighting
Your Pain And Start Feeling It?

Sometimes the biggest change isn't what happens around you. It's how you begin responding to yourself when life hurts.
Here's what students have experienced as they've learned to receive and practice compassion.

Here's What You'll Get Inside The Compassion School


✦ 24 LIVE HOURS WITH LAURA DUNCAN

Two hours each week for 12 weeks to learn, receive, practice, ask questions, and grow together.

✦ PRACTICE NIGHTS

Extended live sessions where you watch Laura lead full 30-minute sessions, start to finish, then pair up in breakout rooms to practice what you saw, with feedback in the moment.

✦ GROUP MENTORING

Support as you learn, so you're not left to figure out how to apply this alone.

✦ ESSENCE: THE COMPASSION METHOD™ COURSE — 8 HOURS

Laura's foundational teaching on the six parts of The Compassion Method.

You'll begin understanding what's happening underneath your pain, why you respond the way you do when you're hurting, and how to bring compassion to those places.

✦ THE COMPASSION METHOD™ WORKBOOK (Digital)

A practical guide to help you work through each part of The Compassion Method and put what you're learning into practice for yourself.

And it's yours to continue using after school ends.

✦ LEARN TO BE WITH COURSE — 12 HOURS

An additional 12 hours of Laura answering real questions from students as they learn how to be with themselves and their pain.

You'll get to hear the questions other people are asking, watch Laura help them understand what's happening underneath, and learn through their discoveries too.

✦ THE COMPASSION SCHOOL COMMUNITY

You won't be doing this alone.

You'll spend 12 weeks learning, practicing, asking questions, and discovering alongside people who are on the same journey.

THAT'S 44 HOURS.

24 hours live inside The Compassion School.

8 hours of foundational teaching inside the Essence course.

12 hours of real student Q&A inside the Learn to Be With course.

44 HOURS.

And 24 of those hours are live.

The 1-on-1 consulting rate is $240 an hour, and availability for sessions is limited.

At that rate, just 24 1-on-1 consulting hours would be:

$5,760

Before you add Essence.
Before Learn to Be With.
Before the workbook.
Without the Practice Nights.
Without the group mentoring.
Without the community.

Is The Compassion School For You?

You don't need to know The Compassion Method before joining.

You don't need to have your pain all figured out.

And you don't need to know exactly how you'll share compassion with others.

You just need to be willing to learn, receive, and practice.

This is a participatory learning experience, not therapy or a professional clinical certification.

I'D LOVE TO DO THIS WITH YOU.

My heart is for you to have the confidence to know that when something hurts, you can care for yourself.

And when someone you love is hurting, you can be present with them without feeling responsible for fixing their pain.

I want compassion to become something you know how to live.

If you'd love to experience that, I'd invite you to apply for The Compassion School.

With Compassion,
Laura
