CCA Compassion Community of Practice (CCoP) 27th April 2026
“When a complex system is far from equilibrium, small islands of coherence in a sea of chaos have the capacity to shift the entire system to a higher order.”
Ilya Prigogine, Nobel Prize-winning chemist
Otto Scharmer has clarified the importance of islands of coherence and the CCA is already such a beautiful one. As a nested system, CCoP holds a particular intention within the CCA.
Come join us for our next Compassion Community of Practice 3.30-5pm (BST) on 27th April where our collective practice is simple:
- Deepening presence through guided compassion practice
- Compassionate listening to support attunement to one another and the field
- Deepening resonance and coherence as a source of nourishment, wellbeing and flow
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 the various 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.
