“Mindfulness is awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgmentally. It’s about knowing what is on your mind,” Jon Kabat-Zinn. As we learn to create purposeful present moment awareness, we begin to see the changing of things in our lives that cause us stress. We learn to relate to our difficulties in life with more openness, compassion, and acceptance.

Mindfulness and the scientific research; Mindfulness of the breath and body; Obstacles to mindfulness; Mindfulness with difficult emotions; Mindfulness with difficult thoughts
Mindfulness Meditation practices will include:
Mindfulness of breath and body; Sensory mindfulness; Mindful eating; Mindful Values exploration; Mindful Self-Compassion
