CBCT® is a structured sequence of meditation exercises designed to strengthen mental stability, deepen awareness and understanding of thoughts and emotions, and support the growth of our inherent capacity to care for others. The aim of the practices is to generate and sustain a more robust, inclusive, and warm-hearted responsiveness, while protecting from the side effects of empathetic distress, burnout, and secondary trauma that are all-too- common for healthcare professionals.
Instructor: Timothy Harrison, Associate Director for CBCT® at the Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics at Emory University, oversees the center’s CBCT® (Cognitively-Based Compassion Training) programs, including the teacher certification process and implementation of CBCT® for research purposes.
